Planet Fitness-TEEN SUMMER CHALLENGE

Want an awesome place to spend time with your friends this summer? Want to work toward all of those fitness goals you have set for yourself? Want to show off your ridiculous feats of strength next year in Mr. Manley's CrossFit class? Great, we have just the thing for you! Planet Fitness is offering a free membership to any teenager between the ages of 14-18 years old between May 15, 2019 and September 1, 2019. This membership gets you access to Planet Fitness facilities and Planet Fitness group fitness classes. If you are under 18, you must have a parent with you to sign up, but then you can use the gym without a parent at any time. If you are 18, you can sign up on your own (Look at you, out there adulting already!). I hope you take advantage of this opportunity! If you have any questions, please email Mr. Manley jordan.manley@fayette.kyschools.us or find him at school. Make the best of your time this summer by committing to a lifetime of fitness!
