Apparently there are two stories as to why the building was refurbished. One story is that there was a fire. The other was that there was a flood. Either way the new building is great. The women's locker room is so clean and sparkly.
The courts are great for handball or racquet ball with enough to go around for peak hours.
The weight rooms are expansive and clean. They have cybex and free weight.
There is a pool too. A simple lap pool that kids frequent. Parking is tough -- get there early for a parking space.

I first went to Viking in 1986 and was impressed. 20 years later, it has aged like a fine wine and is truly outstanding. Jessica, the owner, is friendly, helpful, and will special order anything you can imagine. Not that you usually NEED to: they have a spectacular stock of miniatures, board games, models, etc. It is a small store, but Jessica has a knack for filling it to the brim with gaming supplies, yet not making it look crowded. She also has a knack for filling it with the RIGHT gaming supplies: everything from the mundane to the exotic. No matter what your gaming experience, you will find something here. Prices are competitive, but what really clinches 5 stars are service and selection. Wow! I now live 2 hours away over the High Sierra, but I still make the drive whenever I can, because it is my favorite game store ever. I've been gaming since 1970, and I have visited all the great game stores around the world, but Viking is still my favorite (including Jeux Descartes). I like it so much that I will drive 120 miles through the snow to buy there rather than just order online. The owner is a gem, the store itself is a treasure, and the experience of shopping there is something every gamer should have. World class? You bet!
PROS: Best, friendliest service ever. Great selection. Competitive prices.
CONS: NONE!

It's so neat inside this store. It's got little mini-stores in each stall. Individual sellers each get their own stall, and they place stuff in in and price it for then leave. The staff that's there then helps you to select and purchase. Sometimes, it is a little frustrating, because the salesperson on staff can't give you a history of the item, but there's a lot of treasures to be found here. Was very impressed by the cufflink collection found in the front glass!

This is my first choice to go to for walking shoes. I don't always find something in my size but they do have a large array of shoes for men, women and children as well as sporting equipment and apparel. Located in a shopping center so there is plenty of free parking.

This bookstore rocks! Used bargin books, and lots of deals to be found. And, they buy your used books for store credit. I've found all kinds of great books here, some I've never heard of before. There are also some antique toys here, some that are hard-to-find. Mr. Anderson is very nice and friendly, and doesn't mind browsers.
