Potentially could get more members increasing to 24/7. Just by keeping equipment room open for people to lift like planet fintess does will get more members.

When I lived in G-vegas, ViQuest was part of my daily routine. I loved going there especially on my work days because I could be clocked out and on the treadmill in 12 minus flat! Please reopen.

Please reconsider. I was able discontinue Rehab at Orthopaedic East, following knee surgery, early and continue on my own at Viquest since they had everything I needed plus more. This was a cost savings for both me and Vidant. The team members saved my rep settings on the equipment so I would have the correct settings for isolating my one leg after the sets using both. They really care! I couldn't have done this on my own. I also used water exercise which proved to be amazing for me. I have a 15 level fusion and I could do everything without pain! The environment is so welcoming and friendly, I never felt "judged", and the warm therapy pool is pure heaven for my back pain. I will also say I was waiting patiently for a safe reopen for my depression/anxiety that has been difficult lately. There is not another gym in Pitt County that could even come close to my needs. There has to be something, even discussion, of all the people who are devestated by this decision. I'm still in shock.

Please keep the gym open. It is an essential wellness resource for our area. I would be willing to pay higher dues and accept reduction in hours of operation if that would make a difference.

Vidant Wellness Center is of great importance to me because throughout the years I saw many peoples lives transformed because they exercised and also emotionally they were more alive. Please reconsider your decision. We need for our members and out community to continue to be healthy.

Wellness is very important to overall health and closing the wellness center is the antithesis of the organization's goal of improving the health of the people of Eastern NC

I am a PGY1 starting this July and the Wellness Center was one of the factors in my choice to work at Vidant. It offers excellent opportunities and services for employees and the community. It would be terrible for many people if this resource were to be stripped away.

Been going every week for 15 years. I have missed it tremendously since the Corona Virus epidemic. Looked forward to the reopening and I am devastated it will close.
