Construction Update! This week! Excitement!

It's all really happening! This whole "roof" thing we've been hearing about for the past year (or two...) is not just some feverish dream, or figment of your imagination. Not only is it happening, it's ramping up this week! (Click that "2010" tab at the top of the screen if you're confused.)

Thursday, December 16th: Plywood hoarding walls will go up in order to separate the construction zone from the public. This will keep everyone safe once the construction phase really gets rolling on the Aquatic side around January 4th.

Friday, December 18th: The stairs that will eventually lead from the Foundation Lounge to the Training Pool deck will be built. By Monday (or so) the stairs should be done! Can you believe it?

Monday, December 21st:
Scaffolded walkways will begin to be constructed starting at the concourse level, including a walkway into the Foundation Lounge. How will this affect your access to the Café Santé, and more importantly, coffee? Don't panic! The Café will still be accessible, and your precious, precious coffee will just move over to the north side of the Café. Phew!

The next step will be to create those scaffolded walkways leading from the locker rooms to the Training Pool. (It's going to wind in behind the Teach Pool.) Note: This will mean the closure of the 6-person hot tub at some point. Stay tuned for the date!
