Thank you Rick Ross.
-Been a very busy past few days! The gym has been buzzing with energy and excitement every class period! Keep it up guys and gals! Honestly speaking, I am a the type of gym owner that loves to have a crowd of folks coming in everyday. At other gyms most owners hope and pray you keep paying your membership but they really don't care if you show up or not.
-NOT US!
You are what makes the gym fun. You are what makes the gym more than just a gym. You guys make it a community. For example: Haley Ross has been a member of Versus for almost a year. Most of you guys and girls in the afternoon classes know her and know about the current hardship her family is facing. Haley's niece (Riley Kate) is 4 years old and is fighting a brain tumor. Haley is selling tee shirts to raise a few extra funds for any expenses insurance may not cover. I am proud to say that many of you guys have already made a donation.
Now, about 6 years ago I went to another gym in Hattiesburg. I went at the same time about 3-4 times a week. The same people were in there almost every time. I never knew one of their names. I referred to them as, "the dude with the red ipod, the girl with the book, and the old guy." Honestly, I am not really sure if we ever said more than a few words to one another.
I am GLAD we know one another. I am glad most of you guys get together outside of the gym for social events. I am glad you guys are not scared to support one another. If you see a new face at the gym, welcome them. Oh and if you want to buy a "Fighting like a Girl" tee shirt. Talk to me!
