MAFC UPDATE

GET FIT Aerobic Classes All Ages

Making Big Progress on MAFC The renovation of the Morrisville Aquatics & Fitness Center (MAFC) is well underway! The renovation will significantly upgrade and improve some amenities in the facility and create greater capacity for participation. Whats in the Works? • Demolish the existing pools, basketball court, tennis courts and driveway. • A new year-round natatorium will be constructed with a retractable roof to allow for open-air use in the warmer months. • A new locker room building will be built between the existing building and the natatorium. • Two new pools will be constructed. A 6-lane lap pool will replace the existing 4-lane pool.Additionally, a two-segment play pool will be constructed.It will include a beach style entry and play features, as well as a 3 ½ foot deep recreation pool. • Additional parking will be included in the project, as well as a relocated driveway intended to give users a safer entrance and exit from the facility. • The existing locker rooms will be demolished, and the weight room will be moved downstairs to allow for a larger workout area. • The group fitness studio will be expanded into the existing weight room. This will help with the overcrowding issue of the current studio. • Two new tennis courts will be constructed to address the foundation issues that exist with the current courts.

MAFC has closed for renovations and a limited number of Morning and Early afternoon group exercise classes have been moved to the Cedar Fork Community Center. Class moving to CFCC, include Yoga, Interval Training, Silver Sneakers, and To-Bo.
