hile the doors were closed to public due to COVID-19, there was a lot of activity going on inside Genesis Place. Staff were completing maintenance projects, painting, deep cleaning and much more. Brad Anderson, manager of Genesis Place, explains: “Although it was unfortunate having to close our doors, it gave us a unique opportunity to refresh and revamp our facility. Now that we’re ready to partially open up again, it will be in even better condition than it was.” Prior to COVID, there were scheduled maintenance projects for the pool area for this year and coming years that required rotating pool closures. The shutdown of the facility allowed for projects to be done at a time when it would not impact pool users. Staff at Genesis Place have been able to complete: • Deep clean of entire fitness area; • Painting of entire fitness area; • Cleaning of all rafters in the fitness area; • Rearranging of equipment to meet social-distancing standards; • Full tune-up of all fitness equipment; • Trend Room painting and floor refinishing; • Repainting the basins and lines in the dive tank and lane swim pool; • Work on the pool mechanical room; • Deep clean of all three change rooms; ceilings replaced and the floors scrubbed and deep cleaned; • Refinishing of the floors in the gymnasiums; • Replacing of the entire floor in the Fun Place; • Changing over lighting to LED lights. “For us, as nice as it is to do the maintenance work without impacting our customers, it is so much better to see their smiling faces as they work on their health and have fun doing it. COVID-19 has required sacrifices that have impacted everyone’s physical and mental health; we’re so grateful to safely open back up and help everyone get back to doing the things they enjoy again.” life
