Medina's Plan for a New Sports Haven

Medina is looking to upgrade its recreation center. The city wants to build a new indoor sports area. This new space would be a turf field house. It would be added to the Medina Community Recreation Center. The idea is to ease crowding at the current field house. This is especially important during busy times. The new addition would be about 7, 200 square feet. It would be made of concrete and have no windows. It would connect directly to the rec center. This way, people can use other facilities like locker rooms and bathrooms. To pay for this project, Medina is seeking a state grant. The total cost is estimated at $3. 3 million. The rec center has already promised $500, 000 from its savings. The city will also look for more money from local groups and sponsors. If the grant is not approved, the project might be put on hold. This would not be the first time. A similar project for a fitness room was delayed for years before it finally happened. The rec center staff and school staff both support this new idea. They believe it will help grow membership and expand programs. Sports facilities are important for any community. They provide a place for people to stay active and healthy. They also offer a space for social interaction and community events. This new turf field house could be a big step forward for Medina. It could give residents more opportunities to enjoy sports and recreation.
