This is a real nice facility for the seniors and the not so seniors in our community. The reason I say the not so seniors too is because anybody over the age of 50 can join this community and fitness center.
TIP: If you have the Priority Health Medicare supplemental health insurance plan their Silver and Fit program at silverandfit.com will pay for your monthly membership dues to Evergreen Commons or certain other local fitness facilities. If you have another Medicare supplemental health insurance company you might want to call and ask them if they have a similar type program to encourage healthy living which of course saves them money since healthy people cost insurance companies much less than unhealthy people.
Some of the amenities they offer are (this is not an all inclusive list): a workout room with professional gym equipment, a wood shop for your creative side, classes in numerous other topics to enrich your life, a café that serves a good nutritional lunch, fitness classes, a small reading library, a pool, a sauna, fitness classes and many other amenities of interest to their members.
The staff here and the volunteers are all very friendly. When I went in to join the first volunteer I met was new so she was struggling just a bit with the duties at the check-in desk, but she was very friendly which of course is the most important thing needed for a person in that position.
If you're 50 or older stop in and talk to their guest services staff and I think you'll like what they offer. I'm looking forward to using this place for years to come.
There is a covered Max bus stop right next to the building if you utilize the bus here in Holland. read more
