There are a lot of people who would spend more time at the gym if they could fit a work-out into their busy schedule. Also, there are a lot of us who are NOT “mesomorphs,” you know, the people with gigantic muscles who seem to dominate gyms. Most of us simply want a tranquil place to do some weight training, run on a treadmill or stretch out. Well, we are fortunate here in Kenmore to have exactly this sort of work-out center: Kenmore Fitness Center!
A Gym Based on a Simple Idea
Tom Dooley, the Center’s Owner, opened Kenmore Fitness Center in March 2004 with the idea of creating a work-out space with 24-hour access that offered basic equipment (with minimal free-weights) and a friendly, casual atmosphere. As he says on the website:
“A quiet, safe, clean, non-intimidating environment for people of all shapes, sizes and ages.”
According to Tom: “Basically, gyms are not ‘complex’ businesses. You have to provide the equipment and adequate space for work-outs, but most of the challenge is ensuring a clean and safe environment and marketing to the public.” As it turns out the Kenmore Fitness Center seems to be an environment that attracts women and ‘baby-boomers.’” This makes sense, because there is a certain level of security and consistency with the key-card system that only allows members into the gym. When you enter the gym you also notice how clean and organized it is:
Tom has built a solid business and really enjoys providing a premier service to his clients here in Kenmore. The Center has continued to grow, serving literally hundreds of clients who pay the minimal fee of $39.00 per person. Also, there is no “sign-up” fee. He offers a number of other less-expensive plans as well. Check out this slide show of Kenmore Fitness Center:
The Kenmore Fitness Center is a wonderful, local business. For those of you who desire a convenient, affordable and high quality work-out facility, you don’t need to travel far. Join the Kenmore Fitness Center!
Colors of Ghana
Tom wanted me to mention one of his charitable projects, Colors of Ghana, which brings hand-made clothing, bags and artwork from Ghana. Many of the bags are made from recycled rice bags which have been transformed into works of art. The proceeds help the craftsmen in Ghana, help they truly need:
