Salvation Army Capt. Jonathan Harvey Blogs for Suisun City Patch

There's a bigger story behind the new Kroc Center than just a place to exercise

Salvation Army Capt. Jonathan Harvey knows there is more to the upcoming $22 million Kroc Center in Suisun City than just an affordable place to exercise.

Harvey, the center's administrator, wants to share the spiritual and life changing-mission of the center as well, part of the Kroc Center's hope that it will not only be able to let people get healthy in body, but also in mind and soul.

As he says in his first blog post on Suisun City Patch's "Local Voices" section:

"I feel blessed to be a part of this incredible community.  Having arrived here less than a year ago I have felt embraced, welcomed and even appreciated at times which is hard to fathom.  For those of you who don't know who I am, I am tasked with the humbling responsibility, along with my wife, of opening and operating the new Kroc Center in Suisun City which will replace the former YMCA which closed abruptly a number of years ago.  What will rise out of the faded burnt orange exterior of Suisun's forgotten gem will be a magnificent example of overcoming."
