Hoping someone with a loved one at Big Muddy can answer my question. When we drove by there last week, we noticed lots of basketball goals, but didn't see the weights like we had before. My son is really into the weights, and wants to try to get to Big Muddy. Hope someone can tell me if they still have the weights, and just moved them. We were coming back from our visit with our son at Western, were very tired....maybe we just didn't see them, but we had never noticed all the basketball goals before....maybe we were just seeing things....(grin) Thanks for any information .....Humbird

I don't know for sure but I think my LO said something once about the weights being inside the gym.  I will ask the next time he calls me.  Or maybe someone else who knows for sure will respond beforehand.....

I have never driven by the back side of BMR to see it, might have to do it sometime. I do remember my son telling me that during one of the big wind storms that the weight equipment outside was blown over.

Thanks so much for your answers....sounds like they do still have the weights. Now if my son can just get transferred there, it would be so much closer for us to visit.  Humbird

I just got off the phone with my LO and I asked him about the weights.  He said there is a larger weight set out in the yard AND a smaller set inside the gym....
