There is something miraculous about Newtown, a borough in Eastern PA with population slightly over 2,000. It's home to the nation's oldest movie theater; one of the oldest libraries in the state works there without interruptions since 1760; George Washington marched his army from Newtown headquarter to defeat the British at Battle of Trenton; the famed primitive painter, Edward Hicks lived and preached there; more recently, aliens visited it, and a popular movie was made about it; the borough even was a scene of an international crime - a billion dollars Russian mafia money laundering was operated from headquarters in Newtown. The list is going on and on.
So it's no wonder that the borough also became a home to the Newtown Athletic Club (NAC) - the third largest single-site workout facility in the USA with world class outdoor resort style aquatic complex. In the best tradition of the Newtown uniqueness the NAC is very different from a regular fitness facility - with its state of the art indoor and outdoor amenities located on 22 acres, bar and restaurant it can best be described as a lifestyle club - a 'golf club without golf'. Among other things the NAC is famed for its hospitable crowded evening parties thrown at its exquisite pool complex. Take a glimpse at the latest party for NAC Advocates that celebrated the opening of the resort pool complex for the 2015 season.
