As a resident of The Orion Sunnyside, I believe our community deserves access to a healthy and active lifestyle without the need to travel far or pay for costly gym memberships elsewhere. Having an on-site gym would not only improve our physical health but also strengthen our community ties and enhance safety. Many of us juggle long work hours or family commitments, and a convenient fitness space here would make it significantly easier to stay active, manage stress, and build connections with our neighbors.

The inclusion of a residents-only gym within The Orion Sunnyside would serve as an invaluable asset. It would encourage more community interaction and engagement, promoting a sense of belonging among all tenants. A gym on the premises would provide a safe, welcoming environment to pursue fitness goals without the hassle or expense of joining external fitness centers. Additionally, it would help in reducing travel times and carbon footprints, contributing to a more eco-friendly and sustainable lifestyle.

An initial survey could be conducted to gauge interest levels and determine the size and features most desired in our community gym. Options should be considered to offer the gym as a no-cost amenity or with a nominal membership fee to ensure accessibility to all.

In cities where residential gyms have been introduced, properties often observe higher satisfaction rates among tenants, conducive living environments, and a notable enhancement in residents' overall well-being. By adopting a similar initiative, The Orion Sunnyside can not only boost tenant satisfaction but also increase the desirability of our community for future residents.

We urge the management of The Orion Sunnyside to take immediate action towards installing a residents-only gym. It’s a step forward in fostering a healthier, more connected, and vibrant community. Sign this petition to stand together for a positive change in our living environment.
