| - I have been a member of the VMLSC for the last 8 years. The rates are good, the facilities are generally well maintained, and the amount of equipment is adequate for the number of members.
This is not a gym for everyone. The hours are not convenient for a 24 hour town. Their hours are: Monday to Thursday, 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.; Friday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.; and Saturday 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. They are closed on Sunday. They used to open at 6 AM and they were open on Sundays, but budget cuts and staff reductions have forced shorter hours.
If your schedule fits these times, it's a great place to go. The people who go there vary in age - well maybe there are a few more retired people than the 30s range, but it a nice group.
There are tow main rooms for most people - the fitness room and the weight room. The fitness room has 8 treadmills, 2 stair steppers, 4 ellipticals, and 4 stationary bikes. The weight room has a nice variety of weight training equipment and there is a good collection of free weights.
In addition to these two areas, the facility has larger rooms where yoga classes and dance classes are held. There is a standard gymnasium where we play paddle tennis several days a week.
While this place may not be for all, it's a great little gym to join and enjoy.
The photos I've included do not show the fitness nor weight rooms. Older people with larger girth tend to get a tad cranky when you take their photos with sweat and all from exercising.
