SILVER CITY >> WNMU will soon begin a complete overhaul of the recreational facilities around Old James Stadium, including the repair and redesign of the university swimming pool. At the most recent Board of Regents meeting, a resolution was passed to seek $4 million in outside funding, with a student fee being used to pay back the debt.
"It is amazing to know that soon our students will benefit from an extraordinary project with the addition of this new recreation center," student body President Edna Reyes said in a news release. "It is time to offer our students a great quality experience on campus through more choices. I know it will be a great addition to this campus."
A blueprint shows a running track beneath the bleachers and around the border of Old James Stadium, as well as a basketball court and sand volleyball court. Within the Brancheau PE Complex, more than 10,000 square feet of the existing facility will be renovated to include two 25-meter swimming lanes in addition to a large shallow swimming area for programs such as aqua aerobics. The reduction in size of the existing pool will make way for a state-of-the-art fitness and weight room and an improved changing room and locker facility.
"Since I came to Silver City, reviving the swimming pool has been a priority because I believe it will continue to enhance our students and our community's quality of life," WNMU President Joseph Shepard said in the news release. "Further, the recreation complex will allow us to more effectively recruit and retain students, since studies indicate that if students form relationships among their peers they are more likely to persist and earn degrees. Facilities such as the recreation center provide opportunities for developing these relationships," Shepard added.
Shepard met with several university departments to brainstorm the programs that will operate in the new facility. Students, faculty and staff will receive free memberships to the facilities, with a membership fee for community members.
Originally constructed in 1979, the Brancheau PE Complex was named after former Mustang coach Tim Brancheau. After more than 30 years, an imbalance in chemical stability paired with excessive water loss led to the closure of the pool facility about three years ago.
Renovations will begin once cost estimates are finalized and bonds are issued. The facility is projected to open in spring 2015.

Siding with more than 30 residents fearful of overloaded utilities and radiation emissions, the Malibu City Council on Monday unanimously rejected the installation of a tenth T-Mobile cell phone antenna node on an already-existing utility pole in Point Dume.
The cell equipment rejection was the first of its kind by the city council, according to Planning Director Joyce Parker-Bozylinski, and raised a larger question among officials and residents regarding the safety of cell phone and utility equipment distribution throughout Malibu. Many noted a risk in the piecemeal add-ons, with more and more communications equipment being added to utility poles and little scrutiny being given.
We need to take a look at the way we do cell towers in this city, said Councilman John Sibert.
An application by Crown Castle Communications to install the antenna for T-Mobile was first appealed last year by a group of Point Dume neighbors who live near the pole in question. The Malibu Planning Commission denied the appeal in December, siding with city staffs assertion that the cell antenna met all necessary design and installation standards. Grayfox resident Matt Rapf then appealed the planning commissions decision to the city council.
Components of the installation would have included a 24-foot utility cable, 4-foot radio reception unit, 2-foot by 7-inch antenna and one-foot utility box on an already-existing utility pole on Grayfox Street.
Carver Chiu, a representative for antenna applicant Crown Castle, said the installation on Grayfox Street would fill an important void for coverage in Point Dume by servicing 44 homes and a beach access pathway in the eastern peninsula of the neighborhood.
Theres a growing demand for the infrastructure to support our societal craving for technology, he said.
But residents argued adding another antenna to a pole already seemingly overloaded by other communications equipment was a huge safety risk.
Theres all kinds of people working [at that utility pole] all the time. Weve had a lot of new loads put on those poles, said Madelyn Glickfeld, a Grayfox Street resident. I dont think anybodys looking at the weight of those poles.
Laetz, who helped overhaul statewide safety regulations on utility poles, spoke out against the new antenna as well.
