:#@$%: He pays about $260 annually for membership? That figures out to just under $22 a month. Anyone on here get a gym membership at that price which includes the following features PLUS attendants?
The House gym features a swimming pool, basketball courts, paddleball courts, a sauna, a steam room and flat screen TVs. While towel service is unavailable, taxpayers remain on the hook for cleaning and maintenance, which has been performed daily throughout the shutdown. There are also costs associated with the power required to heat the pools and keep the lights on.
