In Rushville, Illinois, the finishing touches are being put on a brand new $5 million fitness and community center.

It's all thanks to an anonymous donor.

Rushville residents have to travel nearly 30 minutes to work out.

Also, city leaders said the town lacks gym space for youth and adult sports leagues.

They said the new will fix those problems.

The exterior of the new Rushville Fitness and Community Center is nearly finished.

Construction crews are working to transform the inside into a new facility that promises to benefit the community.

"It will have a community and fitness room," Fitness and Community Center President Tim Ward said. "We're going to have a gymnasium that we've needed to bad in this community for years."

Ward said the new facility will fill a number needs in the community.

"We can have a multitude of events for children, like basketball, volleyball, indoor soccer, pickle ball for the adults and indoor walking for the seniors and everyone."

The center will also have an indoor pool to use year round.

Ward said right now, options are limited when it comes to exercise and activities. He said a multi-court gymnasium and indoor track will benefit people of all ages.

"We'll be able to do indoor walking and exercise daily and swimming and watch our kids play basketball on weekends in a nice new gymnasium," Ward said.

Rushville Mayor Carson Klitz said he hopes this attracts more people to town.

"It's going to help the town be more competitive," Klitz said. "When you couple that with the other things we have to offer, if we're attracting people to drive 30 miles to work, they'll come here if they have a choice between us and surrounding towns."

Ward said they're working to finish up dry wall and paint the gymnasium right now.

"This is a blessing for the community of Rushville," Ward said.

Construction crews said the plan is to open the facility in June. It will be owned by a 501(c)(3) corporation and operated as a not-for-profit.

The hours are yet to be determined, but the current plan is to allow 24/7 access to the fitness portion.

The cost is 35 dollars a month for ages 18 to 35 and 30 dollars a month for seniors.
