Napoleon Community Schools is excited to announce the scheduled opening of our new fitness center on Tuesday, May 12th. Part of the 2023 bond approved by voters, this new fitness center will be a staffed, membership-based facility open to residents of the Napoleon School District and will replace the current key-card entry system that is used for community members in the current weight room. Beginning on May 12th, the weight room will be reserved for use by Napoleon students and athletes under the supervision of Napoleon teachers and coaches.
Applications for membership to the new facility can be found here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1RaC38go4-a7omCWnk3szclEMF6EvfQwbCYvsb0lcZOE/edit
We will begin processing these applications on Monday, April 20th so that we can ensure a smooth transition for our community members that are moving from the weight room to the fitness center. Current key cards will be deactivated on May 12th.
We will also be hosting a community open house on Wednesday, April 29th from 6:00 – 8:00 PM for those that would like to preview the new fitness center.
This is a great addition to our campus footprint and we are looking forward to seeing our community take advantage of this amenity.
