SAC sauna renovation to be completed soon
Aquatic facilities in the Student Activity Center are getting a facelift.
The two dry saunas are getting a full renovation, with cedar wood being used to replace the old paneling, which was becoming noticeably weaker with age. Seat materials will be replaced with a composite product made of recycled plastic and wood, a hardy material made to withstand the scalding temperatures, which lie around 100 degrees Fahrenheit.
Work on the first sauna has been completed. Steve Lawrence, associate vice president of Facilities Management, said the second is scheduled to be complete soon.
The renovations are costing the university $20,000 total.
