Recreation Centers of Sun City, Inc. is pleased to announce that the
Fairway Recreation Center renovation project will begin June 16. The
project has been planned and discussed for more than three years, and it
will finally get started in the coming weeks.
“Although we will not be immediately demolishing the Phase 1 buildings
at Fairway, we will begin decommissioning these buildings in preparation
for demolition in the months ahead,” said RCSC Assistant General Manager
Jim Wellman.
Those buildings scheduled for Phase 1 demolition include the Arizona
Room, the billiards room, the music room, the auditorium, the library
and the pool and spa. The decommissioning process includes asbestos
inspections and removal, removing/relocating equipment, moving of
designated clubs to other locations and verifying, disconnecting and
relocating utility services to support the club room buildings that will
remain on the property until Phase 2 begins. All clubs affected by Phase
1 demolition have been notified regarding their temporary locations, and
will receive additional notification soon regarding their move date.
The Fairway renovation will be paid for out of the RCSC Preservation &
Improvement Fund. Fairway, the second oldest recreation center in Sun
City, is scheduled to be rebuilt with new club rooms and newer
amenities, including an indoor walking track, walking pool, swimming
pool, spas, expanded Arizona Room and fitness center, using a two-phase
construction process. The new facility will offer RCSC cardholders and
chartered club members a safer and updated center.
“We know this will be an inconvenience to some RCSC cardholders,” said
RCSC Board of Directors President Denny Nichols. “But their patience
throughout this process will be rewarded with a brand-new facility.”
