As most know by now, the loan money didn't come through after months of being put off by the VC group. We are involved in legal proceedings against those involved. We won't be able to report much of what's happening until it's all over. Suffice it to say there are a LOT of disappointed people in Sierra Vista and HealtH2O Medical Fitness Center about the issue. We are pursuing other avenues of financing at this time and will keep all posted on developments as they happen.

For
the last several years, many people have been involved in the process
of bringing Sierra Vista its first Medical Fitness and Aquatic Center.
In 2004 several friends
helped Jim and I purchase a prime piece of land--4 acres--on Wilcox
between 7th Street and Lenzner--across the street from Calvary Chapel
behind Wendy's.
My architect Diane Krebs-Carhuff
and I are putting the finishing touches on a building we think will
be beautiful, energy efficient, compact and well organized and of
a size to be financially feasible. Mr. Bill Wintrode of Territorial
Capital in Tucson is helping us find funding to build it. We will
soon be looking for local partners to help with the rest of the
financing.
Many programs are planned
to help the people of Sierra Vista and the surrounding area become
and remain healthy. Some of those programs will be aquatic-based
and some will be land-based, offering many opportunities to enjoy
getting and staying physically fit and healthy.
Some of our
programs will include:
Cardiac Rehab
Osteoporosis screening and treatment
Physical Therapy utilizing both aquatics and land
Yoga
Pilates
Aerobics on land and in the Water
Programs for special populations such as Pregnancy, Baby Movement,
children's yoga, etc.
Personal Training
Weight Loss/Maintenance
Life Style Change
Stress reduction and Management
Support
areas will include:
Child Care
Resource Library
Healthy Food Restaurant and Juice Bar
There's
much to be done yet. Watch this site for further developments and
updates on the project.
