Medical Expense Fundraiser

Thu, 17 May 2012 00:00:00 -0400

As most of you know, David McGivern, was struck by a motorist and dragged while riding his bicycle across the Donald Ross bridge on March 25th. David was in the hospital for 9 days, and has undergone intense physical, occupational and speech therapy for his injuries. He is still recovering and will have many medical bills as there is no one to account for this hit and run accident. Thankfully, he has returned to very scaled workouts that compliment his physical therapy, but he still needs our help! On Thursday, May 24th, Grease Burger has agreed to provide us with free appitizers and 2-for-1 drinks to benefit David. We are preselling tickets for $20 at the gym and offering raffle prizes and silent auction items now. The more tickets we can sell, the better the goodies Grease will provide. Please help us make this event a HUGE success! For questions or to make a charitable donation of goods or services, please contact Mary Bart Houston at mailto:marybart2006@yahoo.com or text/call 561-254-6344

Schedule Changes

Mon, 14 May 2012 00:00:00 -0400

Effective this week, we have changed the morning AM classes to be consistent Monday - Friday. There is no longer an 8:00 AM and 9:00 AM class on Tuesday and Thursday. Instead we will have an 8:30 AM and 9:30 AM class like we do every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. We will still offer the "Child Watch" class n Tuesday and Thursday at 9:30 AM instead of 9:00 AM. We hope these changes meet with your needs!
