What do you like about our programs and activities?

I’m pretty much an active elderly loner. I come in to use the gym usually before 10 o’clock in the morning. I always find the equipment. I work out with clean and usually available. I also think it’s an asset that the facility has staff available to go around showing “newbies” how to safely use the equipment. Keep up the good work. Tony.
