MIHS Fitness Center Renovation Project
Thank you for supporting our kids!
"If you build it, they will come." Kevin Costner from Field of DreamsThank you for your interest in the exciting MIHS Fitness Center Renovation Project! Previously, the only on-campus, training space available to the student body was an outdated weight and wrestling room which are in dire need of renovation. The rooms lacked cardio machines, functional training equipment and space, and were drab and unmotivating.Our community created a WELCOMING, ALL-INCLUSIVE, state-of-the-art Fitness Center that is supporting ALL students – from those who are "just" earning PE credits to State-caliber athletes...and everybody in between.Mercer Island students, athletes, coaches, booster clubs, alumni and the residents partnered to fundraise this project. ALL MIHS students now have a safe, effective space to work on their strength, conditioning and fitness goals and enable the school to increase its P.E. offerings, encouraging lifelong fitness. The MIHS Fitness Center is an investment in the future of our island and the health of our community.This past summer, the new flooring (which was already planned and funded with the MISD Capital Levy), has been replaced with durable rubberized fitness flooring. And our community raised an additional $150K to pay for the new equipment and enhanced space.If you want to be a part of maintaining this facility, you can continue to donate! No donation is too small! 100% of all tax-deductible donations go directly towards maintaining the MIHS Fitness Center! And don't forget to ask your company to match!"If you build it, they will come!"
The current space was unusable for many athletes and was uninspiring and unmotivating for all.
The new MIHS Fitness Center inspires students, coaches, and athletes to reach their full potential.
We've now caught up to the competition
Schools around us (including Bellevue, Newport, Interlake, Eastside Catholic, Skyline, and more) also boast modern, well-equipped fitness centers that give all their students a competitive advantage.
