Members in Attendance: Marlin Burrows, Gene Eakes, Mary Laptewicz,
Tom Lawson, Mike Runyon and Steve Smith
I. OLD BUSINESS:
A. Balance Disk – FC users are experimenting with
the Balance
Disk. It can be
used with the rounded side up or flat side.
B. The painting of the weights is now complete.
There were
a few complaints that
they were slippery with just the primer
coat. With the
final coat on that this is no longer an issue.
C. Usage is down a little. The average use per
day is 36.8,
with Monday being the
busiest day of the week
(Monday, 5/5 – 60; Monday
5/12 – 62).
There were 8 new members
oriented to the Fitness Center
since our last meeting.
The new sign up sheet was reviewed
and this will simplify
sign-ins, and record-keeping.
D. In keeping with the once a year AED Refresher Course,
Steve has set up a class
for May 31st. However, Tomi
has 6 to be trained
and the instructor has 3, which is
a full class.
Instructor wants to do this class in his office
at BCCC. The
instructor is no longer interested in holding
classes here and
they will be at BCCC from now on.
The Course is $50; book,
$16 and card $3. The course fee
is waived for those
65 and older. Steve will try to set up
another course in
June.
II. NEW BUSINESS:
A. The Annual Building Survey from the B &
G has been
approved.
This includes adding gutters to the rear of
the FC building.
Make repairs to the parking lot.
Mike has agreed to
oversee the repairs of the parking lot.
B. Steve will attend the Budget Review Meeting on
Thurs May 22nd.
C. The Budget Review Meeting scheduled for
July 23rd will
be attended
by Ken Erickson. Steve has agreed to work with
Ken in
preparation for this meeting.
D. In regard to taking any further
steps to discipline users who
refuse
to clean up after using equipment, it was decided to
continue on the same course at this time, and use reminders.
E. It was decided to change the day
for our monthly meeting
from the
second Wednesday of the month to the third
Wednesday,
due to a conflict with Steve's schedule.
Also, as we
did in 2007, we will not meet during the
months of
July and August this year.
F. A vote was taken as to whether we should make a
proposal
to get
extended cable for the FC . This would increase
our
cable bill by approximately $400. This proposal was
turned
down at this time.
G. We have one recurring
complaint from the same FC user.
This person believes that the "Leg Extension Machine"
poses a risk to users. The same response is given, that
signs are posted that everyone should check with their
physician before using the Fitness Center. Some users
have also been instructed by their physicians/physical
therapists that this machine is of benefit to their rehab.
Since his complaints have been answered several times,
any further complaints will be ignored.
H. Again, Gary Miller did
an excellent job writing an article
for the Cypress Landing Newsletter which appeared on
the front page. The article encouraged use of the Fitness
Center and help with cleaning. The cleaning calendar
is seeing a few more names on it recently.
I. The next FCOC Meeting will
be Wednesday, June 18th at
4:00 p.m. at the Fitness Center.
