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.
