Phase 1 of the BHP Billiton Red River Fitness & Natural Sciences Campus is COMPLETE. Phase 1 is a 70,000 square foot fitness and aquatic center ensuring people of all ages and backgrounds have access to state-of-the-art exercise equipment and group exercise studios. The gymnasium is home to youth and adult sports leagues such as basketball and indoor volleyball. An indoor family pool and a 50-meter competition pool promote year-around life-saving swim programs and serve as a home for area swimmers to host and compete in local, state and regional events. The Y continues to offer quality services and has expanded our offerings to include programs such as “Swim For Life” supporting drowning prevention effforts in our community. The BHP Billiton YMCA allows us to better serve our members and our community by increasing our capabilities and expanding our reach.
