CAMPBELL RIVER, B.C-Campbell River City Council finalized a plan to give the city’s Sportsplex a brand-new do.
Weight room equipment that’s more than 20 years old and an aging fleet of spin bikes at the facility will be replaced.
The contract was given to STAK-Matrix Fitness Canada and valued at $95,757.
STAK-Matrix will be preparing an equipment room layout plan, as well as supplying, delivering and installing new commercial grade fitness equipment.
The old equipment is no longer under warranty, and because the manufacturer has gone out of business, replacement parts are not available.
Accessible equipment will be replaced with updated versions, including an upper body ergometer.
The equipment is expected to arrive in late August.
The Sportsplex will be closed for three-days to clean and replace flooring in the weight room space.
The supplier will train all fitness staff on equipment use and will spend several days in the weight room during the second week of September to train equipment users.
