Y gets $25K for teen fitness center
From republicanherald.com:
The center, called The Virtual Edge, will be on the balcony overlooking the gymnasium. It will feature video fitness equipment and sports games designed to encourage healthy lifestyles and physical fitness in local youth, Seamon said.
The grant was presented to the agency by Lowe’s company officials last week.“The Virtual Edge will be a state-of-the-art video fitness center where youth can work out while mimicking video arcade games, such as riding dirt bikes, skateboarding, dancing, boxing and other activities,” Seamon said. “The system will feature big-screen televisions, flashing lights and actual equipment that simulates arcade games, while targeting muscle groups vital to healthy growth and overall fitness of young adults.”
