Welcome to our blog! Yes, it has been a long time in the making, but we’ve finally figured out how it works (or so we think). We hope to use the blog as a means of communication with you all, and keeping us all on the same page with regards to what’s on or whatever it is that a blog gets used for….we’re sure we’ll figure it out sometime.
It’s hard to imagine we’ve already crossed the 11 week mark in this amazing journey with you all.
We have been overwhelmed and humbled by the way in which TENACITY WORX has surpassed our expectations. We are so thankful for the support of each of you, for each of you plays an important part in making this a great place…and a dream come true!
We had some very simple reasons for even entertaining the idea of opening our own gym. Basically they boil down to our family priorities and our love for people
We have been given so much, and so, our desire is to use what we have to benefit the community we live in. We want to help as many people as we can to live their lives to the full, which fundamentally means, in good health.
This brings us to the main purpose of this blog….
Introducing our “Charity of the month”. Now, before you all freak out, no, we don’t plan to bombard you with 12 charities every year…. but we do plan to run this campaign for the month of May and it seemed the most succinct way to say it. During the month of May, we plan to host some fund raising activities in support of, what we believe, a worthy local charity. The charity we have chosen for the month is Street Level Youth Care.
Street Level Youth Care is a non-profit, non-government funded organisation, who run wholly and solely by volunteers. These volunteers prepare meals and travel with the meal van seven nights a week, currently visiting at four locations on the southside of Cairns.
“Street level youth care exists to assist young people in need, providing food and other emergency services, general care and through promoting in them a sense of self worth and guiding them in a positive direction.”
For more information, you can visit their website: www.streetleve.youthcare.org.au
How do we plan to pull this off??
Well, firstly, our contribution: For all new members who sign up during the month of May, their first week’s membership will go to Street Level Youth Care.
Secondly, we will be hosting a nutritional seminar, with thanks to our resident nutritionist, Cass Olholm.
Thirdly, the last Saturday of the month will be a charity fundraiser workout.
More details will follow in the days ahead.
If you have any ideas you’d like to throw into the mix, please feel free to email us, or speak to Matt.
