| Wartburg College and the City of Waverly
are partnering in an innovative project to benefit both the college
and community. Scheduled to open in the fall of 2007, the Wartburg-Waverly
Sports and Wellness Center will be one of the largest NCAA Division
III facilities of its kind in the nation. Waverly Parks and Recreation
programs, community and college wellness programs, and Wartburg's
19 men's and women's sports will operate out of this $30 million center,
which will provide Waverly's first indoor swimming facilities. The
natatorium will offer a zero-depth entry recreation pool, water slide,
and six-lane competitive pool. The center will also include a state-of-the-art
fitness center with climbing wall; a sports arena; an auxiliary gymnasium
with jogging track; and a fieldhouse featuring a 200-meter competitive
indoor track and space for four basketball or tennis courts. Public
parking will be located near the community entrance to the building. |
