Simeon's Fitness Club, a club for members ages nine and up held its first meeting on Friday, Sept. 25th. Close to thirty members stretched, exercised and played games designed to teach them the importance of being active and healthy. The Club is the brainchild of counselor, Simeon Williams. He is very active and works to stay physically fit by boxing and working out with weights. He has developed a program that will teach our members how to exercise, eat healthy and develop their own healthy lifestyle. Simeon's Fitness Club meets every Friday.  (See photos)
