Crews from The Farfield Company of Lititz, Pa., continue to work both inside and outside toward an August 2000 completion date. The project, which will add nearly 16,000 square feet to the 1938 facility, will provide students with new recreation facilities, including an indoor pool and spa, a gymnastics training facility, weight lifting, combative sports area, interactive activity lounges and locker rooms. At left above, workers inside install duct work for heating and air conditioning, while, at left, Denny Rohrer, project supervisor, and Dennis Handel from Farfield look over construction plans. Above, a member of The Farfield Co. removes concrete from the basement. The upgraded facility will be open 24 hours.
