Photo by Bill Wiegand

Walk this way With the autumn chill taking hold outdoors, walkers and joggers welcomed the reopening of the Armory’s track on Nov 7. Closed since August for resurfacing, the reconditioned track and floor area now contains restrooms and a drinking fountain and can be accessed through Room 190 in the building’s southwest corner. Through the end of the calendar year, patrons can use the Armory track without charge but will need memberships to Campus Recreation or the Armory to use it beginning in January. Details about memberships and facility hours are available by calling the Armory Message Center at 333-8333 or visiting the Web at www.uiarmory.com.
