New Honorary Members

Two more folks have become honorary members in our 36 in 36 journey. Although they have not been at an "event attended" with us they both participated in an "unofficial event" (the tour of RPAC on June 21)

I am excited to present to you the new 36 in 36 honorary members: Steph S. and Jil A. Congratulations ladies I know you feel as if you have reached the pinnacle of life by being included on our quest.

RPAC

A., M., and friend Steph were treated to a thorough tour of OSU's new Recreational and Physical Activity Center(RPAC) by soccer star Jil Anderson(Thanks Jil for taking time out of your busy schedule to show us around).

For those of you who attended OSU in earlier years, the new rec center is located on the site of the former Larkins Hall. Some express nostalgia to the old facility but fond memories encased in cobwebs would be promptly dusted away on entering the current facility. It is an amazing opportunity for students recreational needs to be met. All students enrolled in over four hours of classes are automatically charged a approximately $75 fee and are considered members of the facility and allowed access to all of it's recreational options.

I didn't realize how much was involved until I came home and tried to explain to hubby, Brent, exactly what we had seen on the tour. Hours later I was still remembering portions of the tour I had neglected to include in my description. It's difficult to describe over 25,000 square ft. of space accurately.
Some of the highlights of the tour:

*The company
*The moveable floor in the pool which aquatic aerobics are offered
*"Cardio Canyon"
*The natatorium ( new word learned meaning: an indoor swimming pool)
*The Lobby/Welcome Center area

OSU revisited

After a long hiatus, we are back in the saddle, metaphorically speaking. Because there are no summer sports available to qualify as eligble to fufill the quest, we have booked some other summer events to keep the 36 in 36 girls active. June 21st J. A. will be taking A. and I on a tour of RPAC- the new rec center at The esteemed Ohio State University. A few of my soccer pals will be joining us. I can't wait until we have new pics to upload on the blog. If you would like to come please contact one of us.
