During economic hard times,
management believes people tend to cut back first on expensive
vacations, second homes/condominiums, country clubs, etc. before
eliminating their memberships in a multipurpose, family-oriented
athletic club such as PAC.
It is a literal truth that the cost of a seven to ten-day
vacation on the beach in the Caribbean, for example, for a
family ..especially with children... will cover the cost of
membership for that same family for two years at PAC and still
have money left over! Furthermore, as members they can use PAC
every day for each year. (excluding major holidays)
In management's opinion, a large percentage of people who have
lost their jobs, or sense that they are about to be laid off,
etc., exercise because they want to look and feel their best
when they go out and interview.
In stressful times, people who exercise regularly not only feel
better physically but also have the sense of maintaining a
greater degree of control over their daily lives, sleeping
habits and professional/personal relationships. There is now
considerable peer-reviewed, supporting documentation in the
medical literature.
So many medical studies (with new ones being announced every
week) are proving that regular exercise help people lead
healthier and more productive lives and also reduce health care
costs. In fact, the evidence is now "over-whelming" in the
opinion of health professionals.
Consequently, more and more "enlightened" employers are taking
this pro-active approach helping employees and their families
improve morale, absenteeism and lower cost of health care.
Health insurance companies are offering more and more
incentives.
In the case of the Portland Athletic Club, this fourth factor is
an important reason why we are committed to playing a greater
role in the SW Portland region's medical community.
