Hi, Justin!

We have a small workout/weight room which has a stationary bike, a 
NordicTrak, and a rowing machine along with a punching bags and a few 
weight machines and lots of free weights.  It is very small though so 
it is usually very crowded.  I get up early in the morning and workout 
before work when it isn't as crowded.  Three days a week some of us 
meet in the capenter's shop to play music and do aerobics.  That can 
be fun, too.

There is a small outdoor basketball court, but that area is used for 
storage now.  We don't have a pool, but lots of folks would love it 
if we did.  A raquetball court would be great too, but as we tease, 
it's a harsh continent.  :)

Cheers,
Mary Lenox
