What an AMAZING turn out at our Open House and ribbon cutting last Friday! The overwhelming love and support for Adapted Fitness was surely felt by all. We got to honor our founder, Tim Gattenby, with a Lifetime Achievement Award, acknowledge our wonderful clients and students who continue to make this program flourish, celebrate our director Dr. Kecia Doyle and thank the wonderful Conway family who funded this new beautiful space. Thank you to all! We are so excited to see how far we can take this program!
