We’re proud to share a few of the uplifting letters from our members…detailing the difference our facility has made in their lives.

THE Netawaka Fitness Center began as just that, a fitness center. But it didn’t take long before it began evolving into a Community Center…a friendly “gathering place” for local folks. Today, along with the fitness enthusiasts, retirees from the 40-mile surrounding area gather several times a week —some daily—to use the fitness equipment…put in a few laps on the indoor walking lanes…do water aerobics in our 8,000 sq. ft. heated pool…and just “chat”. Many retirees come for a brief “workout”, but it’s likely they come as much to visit with new friends…have coffee…play cards, dominos, bingo, work on crafts, etc. The Center gives them some place to go and something to do on a daily basis. And they love it. BIT OF BACKGROUND. Before we share some of the letters we’ve received (some “choked us up”), let’s go back to the roots of this 30,000 sq. ft. “Wellness Center” located in the middle of this small town. Funding for this state-of-the-art facility began with strong support from Netawaka residents. After a good start, they reached out to a member of the Zwonitzer family. The Zwonitzers grew up in this small town—their parents operated the café called “The Snappy Inn”. The family has fond memories of the café’s regular customers, and being members of the high school Hornets teams. After visiting, listening and studying the plans, Bobbi Reiman, the youngest member of the Zwonitzer family, agreed to help complete the $5 million structure. “This is still my family’s hometown,” she says, “and I’m proud to give back in a tangible way. We’re so pleased with the results, to see how people have embraced this facility, and now come a distance from surrounding towns to gather here regularly. “It’s become a ‘happy place’. And when people are happier, they’re healthier.” 800+ MEMBERS AND GROWING. Because it’s a non-profit facility, the rates are much lower than at fitness centers offering far less. Besides the 8,000 sq. ft. pool, this one has a full-size basketball court…top-of-the-line weight room…treadmills…recumbent bikes, etc. We offer exercise classes for the young and “the mature” alike in water aerobics, yoga, kickboxing, etc. We offer individual instruction, too. We have clean locker rooms and showers…batting cages…even a “Bouncy House” and fully-equipped Latest Fitness Equipment Kids Zone, so parents can bring children with them instead of leaving them with a sitter. Yet, with all this, the rates are far lower than you’ll find elsewhere. Single memberships are only $35 a month…family memberships just $55. And for seniors 65+ it’s only $30 a month. We’d like to share a few of the poignant notes from members—most directed to Bobbi Reiman: Here’s what our members are saying: “I want to thank you with all my heart for building this beautiful facility. It has truly changed my life. “I have lost 70 pounds since last May and I’m getting around so much better. But what means even more to me is it’s given me a new ‘family’—all the wonderful new friends I’ve met there. “That begins with the manager, Scott, who insisted on walking me to my car every day when the weather was bad. All of the employees are amazing, positive people. They really care about us. Your gift is such a blessing. I want you to know how much this great facility means to all of us.” – Terry Craig, Holton

“We just want you to know how much we appreciate this incredible wellness facility in Netawaka. We use the walk- ing lanes almost every day, and look forward to visiting with other members. “Through your generosity, this Center is bringing back the ‘togetherness’ we used to have here. We’re now meeting nice people from other communities who are drawn to this amazing facility that’s second to none! “Again, many, many thanks!” – Mike & Shirley Coyle, Netawaka Water Aerobics Classes “My husband suffered a serious fall in 2015. When we first came to the Center in July 2016 he was using a walker. He needed assistance to get in and out of the pool for water exercise, and the staff was eager to help. “Within 2 weeks he had progressed to using a cane, and by September he no longer needed the cane. We can’t say enough about the facility and the friendly staff. “The exercise equipment helped me as well in rehabbing my knee. It’s been so convenient that both of us could have physical therapy in the same place. It’s wonderful to have all this trained help available in our community. “We love the social interaction with other members, too, including playing cards. This facility is so appreciated by all who come here. But for my husband and me, it’s been life-changing.” – Martha Coder, Effingham

“I had an injury that required surgery in the past year, and the therapy at the Center has helped me greatly. “During winters when I was a boy I couldn’t wait for the pond to freeze over to ice skate. Back then, I never dreamed I could go swimming in winter in an 8,000 sq. ft. heated pool! Can’t beat that on cold Kansas days. “We love the visiting, too. Small town folks always seem to have a lot of stories to share. Thank you so much for making all this possible in our community.” – Charles McKee, Wetmore “I had total knee replacement Jan. 22, and am at the Center 3 days a week for physical therapy sessions. I am feeling good and hope to get back into the pool soon to join others in the water aerobics classes. Walking Lanes “David uses the fitness equipment and runs in the gym a couple times a week. And on Wednesdays we play rummy and pitch card games in the lunch room. There’s always something to do here to enjoy. “We live nearby, but we meet members who drive 40 to 50 miles, and they say it’s well worth the trip. “We’re meeting new friends and having a lot of fun. We so appreciate your help in building this facility for your hometown! It’s bringing people together again.” – Mary & David Schock, Holton “Thank you so much for the Netawaka Fitness Center. I’m from Sabetha and love to come here. A great place, and so many nice people. The friendly staff does such an awesome job.” – Sally Hartter, Sabetha “I have been a member since this facility opened, and the water aerobics have been a Godsend for me. I am there 4 to 5 days a week. I am 86 years old and the exercise and therapy is keeping me young! Thank you SO much for this Center.” – Marilyn Ramisbothom, Netawaka “My husband had spinal cord surgery 5 years ago and probably wouldn’t be walking if it wasn’t for the water aero- bics classes which strengthen his legs and arms. What you’ve done by building this wonderful facility is SO appreci- ated!” – Norma & Kenny Thomas, Whiting “This facility has been incredibly helpful in my recovery from shoulder surgery and keeping weight off. You likely will never know how much this Center has contributed to reviving this entire community!” – Anita McKee, Wetmore “We both enjoy the fitness classes and swimming in the heated pool 3 times a week. We are from the Fairview area and it’s well worth the drive. It gives us something to do and some place to go. Instructor-Led Exercises “The center is very clean and welcoming, all of the equipment is the latest and top of the line, and the staff is very friendly and always helpful.” – Janet & Joe Summers, Fairfield “We’re both in our 70s, and the pool does wonders for our old bodies. We come at three least times a week. We so appreciate this wonderful center.” – Doyle & Pat Spohn, Holton “The center has enabled me to rehab after a hip replacement and maintain a healthy life style. The staff and other members are genuinely friendly, caring people. It’s well worth the drive to enjoy.” – Nancy Keith, Effingham “May you be richly rewarded for sharing your blessing with your old hometown! “I say a prayer of deep gratitude each time I pull into the parking lot!” – Paul Porter, Holton
