Seeking help with updating the oldest gymnasiums still in use. I try to have a top ten for each category in hte Record Book, and it was pointed out to me I still had Howe Military and Ft. Wayne North listed - both no longer in use.
The oldest I know of are Elkhart Northside Gymnasium serving Elhart built in 1954 and Southport Fieldhouse built in 1958. That seems a very big jump from 1928 to 1954. There have to be some older than 1954. Any help or leads?
