The latest in St. John’s Gym in Paradise drama is that the establishment is now open again under the auspices of it’s original owners the Swan’s and Bertolino’s of Hardware Store fame. They had sold the business to a character by the name of Mark Dallas, who at the last minute sold memberships at discount prices and skipped with the money.

The policy now is that these memberships will not be honored, but there will be a bone thrown to returning members. Pay for June and get July free.

The gym is basically the same as before, but the place definately looks a cleaner, more intelligently arranged and out of order machines are back in order. There is no new equipment.
