Board members are not paid (arguably, they should be); although they do receive free CA memberships. The President/CEO is a full time position and is paid.

And to be clear, while there are elections for board seats, many current board members were seated in uncontested elections or were appointed without an election due to a vacancy.

Are you talking about this barbershop on Minstrel Way:

Because this is what I was going to mention too. I haven't been back here since the pandemic but it was only like $10 a cut and I like simple cuts too. Number 1 on the sides and a little bit longer on top.

They share the business with the salon next door that they will send overflow to and the cuts there aren't bad. But I think there's a reason why there's usually a wait for the barbers in the shop to the right.

Like I said, haven't been back since the pandemic, so don't know if prices went up or anything.

Don't worry, I'm sure they'll come up with another pointless renovation to close down a large section of the gym for months at a time and then raise membership prices another $5/month

  • Closing the free weight area for several months, then the cardio area, then taking away the stretching area (for Tribe Fit paid classes) then the bathroom renovation is why I stopped going there ;)
