Thanks to a generous local donor couple, our renovation began in May and is expected to be complete in January.

We are sending weekly updates via email to our members and post regularly on our website and Facebook page and update our display board in the lobby.

Your safety is our top priority, and we’ll do everything we can to keep VINE running as smoothly as possible while ensuring everyone’s safety. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time of transition.

The short-term inconvenience will be well worth it when our updated and refreshed space is ready! Thank you for being part of this exciting new chapter for VINE.

Our renovations are nearing completion and we hope you’ll join us for our Grand Reopening Celebration on Tuesday, January 27, from 3–5 pm with a short presentation at 3:30 pm. Stop by to tour the renovated space, reconnect with friends, and celebrate this exciting new chapter together.

Room & Class Changes

JANUARY:

  • While the co-ed locker room is under construction, Men can use the men’s and women’s bathrooms located across the hall from the pool on the 1st floor. 
  • Temporary Entrance & Parking:

    • Parking: Some spaces near the drive under canopy remain closed, but the rest of the parking lot is open.
    • Entrance & Front Desk: Please use the southeast entrance (across from 5th Street). A temporary front desk is located on the 2nd floor inside those doors. All members and guests will enter and exit through this level until renovations are complete later this year.

Questions?

If you have any questions about where programs are being temporarily relocated or adjusted, please call (507) 387-1666. 

*Please note that while the scope of the project has remained the same, some visual details in the renderings have changed throughout the design process. As a result, the final built version may differ from what’s shown.
