Kenyon College - Swimming in December?
Travels throughout the country leads me to facilities of all shapes and sizes. Even though our goal is to speak about sports turf, I had to post about the site I visited early this week. The Kenyon Athletic Center is impressive. First of all, the 250,000+ sq ft facility has windows all over the facility. In fact, the day I visited there were no lights on. Why? There is so much natural light there is no need for lights. The competition gym (Photo #3) has windows on three sides. When is the last time you saw that many windows in a gym! My tour finished at an extremely unique facility, the swimming pool. (Photos #1 and #2) Have you ever seen a pool this big surrounded by windows! Kenyon has won 31 straight men’s D-III swimming titles. The women have won the last 23 of 27 D-III titles. Wow!

They only could do that in modern times. I am sure they could not do that in the horse and buggy days.
