The Iowa City Recreation division made many improvements last month to the Robert A. Lee Community Recreation Center including replacing the boiler, replacing the heat coils in the pool area, resurfacing the locker room floors, and a new coat of paint for the main lobby and bathrooms. Additionally, the billiards tables in the game room have been re-felted. Thank you for your patience during our closures in January.
