Events - Jan 23 23

If you made a New Year’s resolution to “pick up the pace” of your personal fitness or start a new activity, why not come to People Plus and start something new at no cost? Try any one (or more) of our offerings during January for Free! The Center routinely offers more than a dozen fitness classes and clubs each week, varying from Table Tennis (free all the time!) to Tai Chi to Write On Writers. All of our instructor led courses are available to members for a cost of only $5 a session.

“The goal is to get folks engaged,” Frizzle explained, “This offer is for new attendees to try classes/clubs and see if they like it. We’re confident they will. There is no better investment than the one we all make in our own personal health. What a way to start the new year!”

This offer is free and open to the public. Call the Center at 729-0757 if you have questions or want to sign up. See our calendar for a complete list of activities to choose from! (Some exclusions apply).
