OpenAire

We expected that [with visitor growth], in year three or four of our pro forma we could get to $2 million in day passes. We were able to do that in the first year of opening.

We are seeing an exciting, overwhelming amount of guests visiting on Fridays and into the weekends. Our capacity is 1,500 guests, and we have reached that every single weekend since we opened on January 12th. We have been selling tickets on our website ahead of time so guests can be guaranteed admission on the day that they would like to visit, and avoid being turned away until we are no longer at capacity on any given day.

OpenAire gave excellent support throughout the design and construction process… The roof was delivered on time and installed on schedule. The result is a stunning restaurant which is commercially successful and provides diners with a truly memorable experience.

Prior to covering the pool, we had very little winter usage, and only limited evening usage. We now have a full pool…our aquatic income has increased over 40% since adding the cover…OpenAire has made a big difference to our YMCA and to the people in our community.

Our membership has tripled. The community loves the whole thing. They can’t believe we have this here in Milford. The OpenAire structure gave us what we were looking for.

We opened the Hockessin Athletic Club on June 10th, 2007. Our members and especially their children rave about the outstanding environment that has been created. I also like the fact that I don’t need lights during the day, and I won’t have to condition the OpenAire space until October or November which is a huge savings over a traditional indoor pool facility. We love our OpenAire!

OpenAire gave excellent support throughout the design and construction process. Communications and drawings were well handled and the OpenAire installation crew was efficient and on time…the OpenAire retractable roof system really does deliver a ‘breath of fresh air’.
