			the owner of SC is just trying to make as much cash as possible lol   
Office space is available for lease if you look at the front of the building 
he leases out the crossfit area 
he's now going to lease out the batting cages 
IIRC he also holds squash tournaments and I'm sure they pay good money to rent that as well lol   
The whole thin-dumbbell area is so cramped now

			YMCA   
Cost: $35 if you're still a student, $48.50 if you're not   
The gym itself is pretty decent, lots of benches and weights and an average amount of people. There are cardio programs and pools, sauna, that you might be interested in as well.    
With a membership pass, you can access to any ymca in Canada, and I'd say it's worth it.

			Richmond Oval   
$42/month 2 year contract 
Youth still LOL   
There are usually a good amount of people lifting weights, but in the mornings the courts are empty, though sometimes there are some type groups that are there I don't know what they do never paid attention haha.   
Only bad thing is at night it's ALWAYS packed, the whole facility. Everyone comes after work I assumed.   
Also Drive takes up a lot of the courts around 4-6 for a while.

			just signed up at the newly-opened Anytime Fitness a couple days ago. everything is brand new 
they even have private showers   
they don't do drop-ins, and i believe there are 2 options: the 24-month & 12 month contract 
if you go for the 12mnth, it's ~$49+tax/month. the 24mnth is ~$39+tax/month 
if you're under 18, they give you a 10% discount. i get mine for ~$35+tax/month 
you also have to pay a one-time fee of $50 ($25 for activation or somethin like that, and the other $25 for the key)

			^^^ there's a new anytime fitness that just opened in surrey right around scottroad and 64th a couple of my friends go they got lucky and got there promo price free card and $35 a month fee. I'm looking into that gym might get a membership but I heard they have no bench press or a squat rack so Im thinking I might go to the YMCA in surrey but I'm going to walk in and check it out myself.
