8. OUR SITUATION A disaster has struck over the holidays totally destroying our gym. This disaster has left us with no space for gym class or Friday night basketball games. The board has decided to allow you to design the new gym (with locker rooms) so more money will be in the budget for the rebuild rather than paying a hefty fee for an architect to design your gym.
