MEMBER OF THE MONTH SPOTLIGHT

July’s Members of the Month are a duo we're lucky to have at CFCA. Brett has been part of our community for years, bringing the same athleticism and competitive spirit that made him a standout hockey player at perennial powerhouse Reading High School. More recently, Joan has become a wonderful addition to the gym, fitting right in with her positive attitude and consistency. A talented swimmer in her day, Joan proves that an athletic mindset never fades.

Together, this mother-and-son duo bring energy, encouragement, and plenty of laughs to every class, especially the 8 AM class. We're excited to recognize them as our Members of the Month and celebrate the positive impact they have on our community. Congrats!

4. Favorite Lift or WOD?

Joan: Anything with Burpee's

Brett: 100 percent her. LOL.

Joan: Brett - but science says you do inherit your athleticism from your mom - so I will take the credit!
