Welcome and thank you for visiting the Elkader Fitness Cooperative website. Most know the Turkey River Athletic Club (TRAC) was completely devastated by the June 2008 Flood. TRAC will not reopen leaving the town of Elkader without a community fitness center.
Health and wellness has always been a priority for the residents of Elkader. Many health conscious residents would not settle for a town without a community gym.
Therefore a small group of people worked to open a non profit fitness cooperative. This site was first posted to the internet to gather support for this project.
During the months of September and October 2008 local residents and businesses gave of their time, talent and treasure to open the doors of the new Elkader Fitness Co-OP.
The new Elkader Fitness Cooperative is located next to the former TRAC, on lower Main St., in the Zapf building formerly the site of Mirror Images and Steven Saunder’s law practice. The new Fitness Cooperative is a non profit venture solely existing to provide an opportunity for area residents to workout.
Members will pay annual dues.
The new Elkader Fitness Cooperative is available for use 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Members will be given a pass codes for the keyless entry security system.
In order to open the Elkader Fitness Cooperative in the Zapf building, which suffered extensive flood damage, a lot of work needed to be done.
