Cresco Fitness Center & Indoor Pool
The Cresco Fitness Center is a facility for all ages to participate in walking, swimming, exercise, basketball, volleyball and other fitness activites year 'round.
This $1.8 million complex was financed by the people of Cresco for today and tomorrow. The facilities include a unique, zero-entry swimming pool that is designed in a "U" shape for safety (low water on one half, deeper water on the other half) and for better utilization of space. The indoor pool is named for the Jack and Fran Thomson family of Cresco who donated $500,000 to initiate the pool.
The large complex includes a walking-running track that circles exercise equipment and a pair of basketball hoops. This complex is connected via a walkway to the 1936 gymnasium that was originally constructed for Cresco High School. The gym is the site of basketball and volleyball games and practices for boys and girls and adults. An accompanying stage is used by groups for birthday parties or group activites and two large adjoining rooms are used for aerobics, dance, tumbling, wrestling and other activities.
A lower level is developed into a golf driving range, softball and baseball hitting cages, a classroom and work area for arts and crafts, and numerous other activities for public use.
