Yesterday was our Feel Good! Do Good! Fundraiser and it was a blast! Special thanks goes to Le Gym for hosting our event and to Davida for coaching such a challenging and fun class!

We would also like to thank everyone who came out to participate in the event and those that demonstrated support through donations. With the help of our awesome community we were able to raise $475 for the St Jude Children's Home!
