Advisory Committee
Members shared positive personal interactions with the Bison Ridge recreation center
pool, the Bison Grill and the golf course club house. There is growing excitement
about the upcoming renovation of the clubhouse. It was noted there have been hot
temps in two, second floor workout rooms with spin bikes at Bison Ridge. These
rooms have A/C but there have been HVAC issues due to the shared wall with the
pool.
