Sidney High School
A one-of-a-kind weight room, tailored for success.
Sidney, NY
In Sidney, NY, school spirit is baked into the fabric of the community, and Sidney High School is its heartbeat.
The School has made its campus a true community asset, opening its pool and a vibrant playground to the public while also using its indoor and outdoor spaces and turf field to support local gatherings and events.

Behind the Sidney High School project
A long-standing partnership
Advantage and Sidney have had a long-standing relationship. The district turned to us when they needed anything from a set of kettlebells to a yearly preventative maintenance form our service department. Incremental upgrades kept the school moving forward, but without the yearly budget for a major overhaul.
When the opportunity finally came along to upgrade the weight room through a capital project, Advantage and Sidney felt the electric energy around the project and knew this was their chance to craft a truly special space.
Advantage worked closely with Athletic Director Jim Karl and Superintendent Eben Bullock, who began his educational career in Health and PE. Eben has always been committed to and passionate about the importance of youth fitness. Together, they harnessed that passion and got to work on bringing their fitness vision from plan to reality.

The fitness space transformation
The space the school had to work with was previously an all-around fitness room, with a mixture of cardio and strength equipment. The transformation this room underwent is a reflection of students’ evolving interest in strength and conditioning. While the school still maintains a different area for cardio, this particular room is strength-focused.
“This project embodies the emphasis put on building a room that’s right for you. This wasn’t a cookie cutter design. This space was specifically created to meet the needs of the student body at Sidney.”
– Matt Bogumil, VP of Sales & Marketing, Advantage Sport & Fitness

Victory starts here

Complete, then advance
Working with Sidney Central School District has been a rewarding experience, bringing us a great sense of accomplishment. This project is a perfect example of the powerful impact intentional fitness design can have on a school and its community. This large-scale renovation marks a significant milestone for the school. The room is still so fresh and like new beginnings, is filled with promise and opportunity.
