Melody recently became a certified personal trainer and initially wanted to open a studio, but they felt that a gym would be a better business decision…. This could be big benefit for those who live in Crozet and work at the NGIC facility up 29 North, as there is another Anytime Fitness facility in Ruckersville.Anytime Fitness is pleased to announce it has signed a lease for space in the Shoppes of Clover Lawn, off 250 West near Crozet…. Anytime Fitness will also offer tanning, personal training, and membership reciprocity among its clubs.Their expectations are to eventually serve about one thousand people…. We believe in great customer service and hope to keep our members excited to come to the gym and workout and be in a fun atmosphere”They will be holding pre-sales in the space next to Dominos starting the first week in January on Saturdays and Sundays from 10 am to 3 pm, and Melody will also be there on the 1st from 3-5 to answer questions and hopefully kick off pre-sale.(Don’t let their racy commercials fool you!)

Wow. It’s still $6.99 for a six-pack at Great Valu. Let’s hope Crozet can keep Starr Hill here for as long as possible.

From an Old Trail release today:As I have mentioned in previous updates, the location and design of the pool has been finalized and we are moving quickly to begin construction. I have attached an exhibit showing the pool location on Old Trail Drive and a detailed layout. The site plan has been submitted to the county and we are pushing for a quick approval so we can have this amenity open by Memorial Day 2008…. I will keep you in the loop as we proceed through the approval process and move towards construction.

From CvilleTomorrow:Supervisor David Wyant (White Hall) asked what provisions the RWSA has for utilizing Beaver Creek Reservoir if the region remains dry. Beaver Creek is the public water source for Crozet, and is a backup reservoir for the rest of the urban water system maintained by the RWSA. Frederick said the safe yield for Beaver Creek is about 1.8 million gallons per day (MGD) but consumption varies between 400,000 and 700,000 gallons per day.“We are not anticipating any near term problems in supplying Crozet,” Frederick said. “The one thing we do have to be careful about is that if we do get into a critical drought period and want to pass water from Beaver Creek to South Fork to augment the urban system, we must be extremely careful and watch our data very closely to make sure we don’t take too much.”Yes, we are still in a drought.
