Great gym: Kress Center makes list of top gyms and rec centers

Our own Kress Events Center is among the venues named on a fun, recently released list of the top 20 college gyms and rec centers. The nod from www.bestvalueschools.com considers such factors as design awards, square feet per student and the somewhat nebulous “wow” factor. Always nice to be recognized, and to see who else is mentioned. You can check out the full list.

And speaking of the Kress … Yoga Detox is coming
Check out the Kress for yourself (and for free) with the upcoming Yoga Detox event, scheduled from 7-8:30 p.m. Monday, Dec. 9 in the Center’s Dick Bennett Gym. Students, faculty/staff and Kress community members of all levels are welcome to this no-cost class aimed at alleviating some of the mental and physical stress that can accumulate this time of year. The restorative and chakra components of this class will allow you to strengthen, calm and rejuvenate your mind, body and soul to prep for final exams, holiday craziness or whatever lies ahead. Mats and blocks are provided and aromatherapy will be used. Attendees are encouraged to bring a blanket, sweatshirt or any other warm clothing to keep themselves comfortable.
