Fitness center construction starts

Working toward a successful completion of Messiah’s Campaign for Wellness, co-chairs Trustee Rick Jordan ’72 and D. Kelly Phipps are ensuring that the College reaches its fundraising goal.

The project broke ground this spring, and the proposed order of the construction of the indoor facilities is as follows:

• Fitness center addition
• Expansion of Brubaker gymnasium providing two basketball courts and office space
• Renovation of Hitchcock Arena into the new home court for volleyball and basketball.

To date, the campaign has raised more than $5.9 million of the $6 million fundraising goal—which is 98%! There is still time to participate in the campaign. These wonderful new facilities will open in the fall of 2017.
