The Kremmling Wellness Center Gymnasium officially opened on Friday, February 20th, with a small celebration and a free-throw contest to showcase the newly completed gym renovation to the community.
The gym floor, which the previous owner sold off, was completely useless when Middle Park Health purchased the building in 2018 to create the Wellness Center. However, MPH, its board of directors, and Middle Park Medical Foundation recognized a need to restore the gym to give the Kremmling community a space outside of the school-run gyms that could be used by every age group.
Middle Park Medical Foundation began raising funds to renovate the gym, and with the generous support of community members, local businesses, and a DOLA grant, the $1.6 million needed to start the project was obtained, and renovation began in the spring of 2025.
With the help of several contractors, Middle Park Health Plant Operations staff, and volunteer community members, the gym began to look like a gym again over the course of the next year: solar panels were installed, windows were replaced, old equipment was removed and new installed, a fresh coat of paint was applied, new ductwork was placed, and the flooring was completely redone, painted, and sealed.
In February 2026, the gymnasium (Phase 1) was completed and opened to the public. Phase 2, the locker room renovation, is still underway with an estimated completion of Summer 2026.
This project was made possible by the generosity of donors in the community and on behalf of everyone at Middle Park Health and Middle Park Medical Foundation, we thank everyone for the continued support.
The gymnasium is open during normal Wellness Center Hours, and we’ve already begun a few scheduled programs like Pickleball Drop-In, an Intro to Sports children’s class, Adult Basketball, and Futsal. We hope to add more programs in the future that align with community needs.
