As AL!VE kicks off its winter programming, it is hosting a community open house to showcase its facility expansion, offer discounts on program registrations and celebrate the grand re-opening of NOURISH by The Big Salad.
In July, Hayes Green Beach Memorial Hospital announced construction would begin on AL!VE to accommodate growing services and the transition of its cardiopulmonary rehabilitation program to the health park in 2017. The construction scheduled to finish in December, will be done by the end of November ahead of schedule
“To make room for our growing rehabilitation services, we expanded the workout and locker spaces to better accommodate patients and our guests and MOVE members,” said Patrick Sustrich, AL!VE executive director. “The facility updates have given us the opportunity to increase our adult and children’s program offerings and recreational options, and increase event rentals.”
During its first quarterly open house, AL!VE will offer facility tours as well as 10 percent off all program registrations for the upcoming winter quarter. Additionally there will be specials in NOURISH by The Big Salad as it celebrates its grand re-opening under the new, local ownership of community members Eric and Morene McGill.
The open house is scheduled from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m., Monday, Nov. 21, and 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., Tuesday, Nov. 22. During those hours community members will be able to:

“We are very excited about the new opportunities, including more hours for recreational programming like basketball and volleyball, more activities that engage the whole family, more educational presentations and more youth development,” Sustrich said. “Additionally we have extended our weekend hours.
