CAMPUS RECREATION FEATURED PROJECT

ASF has successfully executed countless college recreation center and university gym projects. Let’s explore one of our featured redesigns to better illustrate the experience we provide. 

GEORGIA SOUTHWESTERN STATE UNIVERSITY

In a landmark transformation, the historic Florrie Chappell Gymnasium at Georgia Southwestern State University underwent a renovation focused on student wellness and recreation. After 80 years without significant upgrades, the ribbon-cutting ceremony in February marked the revival of a campus gathering space that had hosted everything from sporting events to graduations. Advantage Sport and Fitness (ASF) played a pivotal role in the project, with John Marcotte, VP of Sales & Marketing, leading the effort. His approach aimed to balance respect for the gym's rich history and the diverse needs of students, faculty, and members.

“I cannot speak highly enough about John and the Advantage team. John paid attention to our dreams and wants. We spent hours with him developing a vision for the space that included the smallest details to make it special. He understands that the smallest details make the biggest difference.”

LAURA BOREN, PH.D.
EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT OF STUDENT ENGAGEMENT AND SUCCESS

The result is the newly revitalized Florrie Chappell Gymnasium, now open to students, faculty, and staff. This renovated space combines a variety of equipment, including strength and cardio machines, custom branding, and functional fitness areas. It also features welcoming spaces like the Sports Lounge and Chill Lounge, fostering a sense of community. ASF's attention to detail and commitment to creating spaces that honor the past while providing a modern, vibrant atmosphere has made this project a success, promising a bright future for the campus’ wellness and recreation endeavors.
