Fitness Inspired for a Cause

​Our mission with FI for a Cause is to support, donate, and make a positive impact in our community.

We LOVE Our Adopt a Family Annual Tradition!

We love our annual tradition of nominating, doing our hilarious "exercise" shopping, and the stealth FI elf delivery of the presents and sunshine boxes!

We are thrilled that it's this time of year! Teams Red, Bling, and Green have their recipients and are ready to go to work!

Special thanks to Fitness Inspirer Karen who volunteered to coordinate this year's annual tradition. YOU are a STAR!!

Flutopia 5K is baaaaack for the 7th Annual!

Flutopia is back! Let's support this cause by representing well at the Flutopia 5K. This year the event will be at the Boalsburg Military Museum Park. Organized by The Flutopia Initiative: flutists inspiring musicians to change the world, one concert at a time, The Flutopia 5k! the most musical 5k around is happening! The July 27 (8:30am) event will begin with a rendition of Flight of the Bumblebee instead of a starter gun; racers, joggers and walkers will be serenaded by some of the area's finest musicians. Naturally there will be flutists, plus drummers, strings, reeds, jazz and more. All prizes are music-themed, and there will be a Flutastic 50 yard dash for children 10 and under.  Proceeds benefit our Centre Volunteers in Medicine.  Don't miss out on the 7th Flutopia 5k! in its new home at the PA Military Museum in Boalsburg!

The Arc of Centre County's Fifth Annual Mom Prom

This year's Mom Prom put on by The Arc of Centre County was an absolute blast!!  This was a special ladies night out-a night “Kentucky Derby” style. and enjoy an evening in the company of their lady friends, family and community! This year Mom Prom raised 20,053.52 to add to the total of over $70,000 to benefit The Arc of center county and all who they serve. At the heart of all the fun is an amazing opportunity to raise money for programming to support persons with a disability. Fitness Inspired had a table at the event, an inspired basket for raffle, and rocked the dance floor. What a great time for a great cause! Thank you Fitness Inspirers for supporting fellow Inspirer Becky C who is the CEO of The Arc of Centre County and supporting The Arc's mission to provide person-centered planning which enhances the lives of the people we serve while ensuring freedom of choice and maximizing inclusion. They say "We thank you for helping those we serve to not just live, but to thrive in our community!"

Coffee with a Cause in Happy Valley

We know from working out-- that consistency is key if you want to have improvement --or as you hear me say it often "showing up." And the consistency in showing up makes all the difference.  

A while back I heard a sermon on generosity in giving, and the pastor made an excellent point that consistent volunteering or giving even if it's not huge will in most situations create a better impact than sporadic giving. So when Good Day Cafe made it into my inbox and our town, I thought this could be an opportunity for consistent giving as so many of us have an affinity for coffee already ;). If anyone wants to grab a coffee after Boot Camp on Thursday mornings or roll out class on Tuesday- let me know!
