A private company is done installing six workout stations and refurbishing four old ones along the Beach Road Pathway.<\/p>\n

Bridge Capital LLC, in collaboration with the Saipan Mayor\u2019s Office and Rep. Joseph \u201cLee Pan\u201d Guerrero (R-Saipan), led the project to install and refurbish workout sites along the Gov. Froilan C. Tenorio Beach Road Pathway.<\/p>\n

Saipan Mayor David M. Apatang is grateful to Bridge Capital\u2019s contribution.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a great help, especially for people who come out here and do their daily exercise and physical conditioning,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The old workout stations were dilapidated and possible health hazards. The Saipan Mayor\u2019s Office asked Bridge Capital to replace the stations before accidents occur, Apatang said.<\/p>\n

He urged the community to be gentle with the new equipment.<\/p>\n

\u201cTake care of [the workout stations], don\u2019t abuse it and don\u2019t try to break it. These things are here for the purpose of helping our physical conditioning, so please take care of it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Bridge Capital chief executive officer Jody Jordahl hopes the public would use the workout stations in the way they are intended, which is for working out.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe hope people of the community treat it well so it lasts for several years and for other people to enjoy. [Bridge Capital] would also do its part [to] maintain the stations,\u201d said Jordahl.<\/p>\n

Bridge Capital spent about $25,000 on this project. <\/p>\n

According to Jordahl, Bridge Capital is also looking at a similar project near Suicide Cliff.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are some stations there that we saw, so that would be the next step,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Jordahl said Saipan is improving, with the re-installation of lights at the Beach Road Pathway and the soon-to-open Puerto Rico Park. He said Bridge Capital is happy to be able to participate in the beautification of Saipan.<\/p>\n

Stretching from Kilili Beach all the way to the Kristo Rai Parish, six workout machines would be maintained by Bridge Capital.<\/p>\n

The workout machines consist of a log-hop station, bench-dip station, T-bar station, chin-up station, push-up station, and a parallel bar station, spread throughout the pathway.<\/p>\n
