NEWS - Fees increasing July 2026

Today, the TAC supports nearly 1,300 members serving as the primary fitness and recreation home for the Delano Community. 

But behind the scenes, maintaining a relevant community fitness and recreation center on a budget that hasn't changed since 2018 has become a challenge of stretching the dollar until it snaps. The continuous rotation of members  means our high-use areas and specialized equipment require frequent attention to keep up with the pace

To ensure the TAC doesn't lose its edge, the center is introducing a two-year incremental membership fee increase. Senior citizen and student membership fees will remain the same. 

Year 1 (effective July 1, 2026): 12 percent increase.
Year 2 (effective July 1, 2027): 10 percent increase.

"The TAC remains a significant value for the community. We want to keep the TAC convenient and accessible," said Abbey Lang, Director of Community Education. "These adjustments allow us to replace aging equipment and maintain the high standards our community expects when they walk through the TAC doors."

While the TAC remains the community’s go-to spot for an indoor walking track, multi-use synthetic wood courts, cardio equipment, and free weights, the cost of keeping those spaces safe and updated has skyrocketed. It’s not just about the lights staying on; it’s about the specialized care required to recreate a fitness and recreation hub designed for all ages.

The math of modern fitness is staggering

  • A single commercial-grade treadmill now costs $6,000, while a high-demand stair climber can cost around $6,500. The TAC has two treadmills that are on their last leg. 
  • Replacing a worn-out leg press is a $4,000 investment, and even a fresh set of dumbbells—essential for any weight room—costs nearly $3,000.

Beyond the iron and rubber, the TAC prides itself on being a clean, community health and recreation facility that is always staffed with friendly employees willing to help. Whether you're walking the indoor track, competing on the courts, utilizing the locker rooms, or training on the circuit machines, there is always a team member dedicated to your needs.

Your reinvestment ensures the facility stays modern and well-maintained, a high-quality fitness and recreation space for years to come.
