Augusta Health to host family-focused event

Chris Graham

Augusta Health’s Lifetime Fitness Center will host a combined celebration of Family Health and Fitness Day and Seat Check Saturday on Saturday, September 24 at the Lifetime Fitness Center on the Augusta Health campus.

In honor of Family Health and Fitness Day, Lifetime Fitness will be open and free to families all day long.  Fitness equipment—weights, treadmills, elliptical machines, the pool and track—will be available.  Fitness classes available will be Cycling at 8:15 am, Body Combat at 9 am and Aqua Power in the pool at 9 am.  Guests must be 13 years and older to use the facilities.  Coffee will be available at the front desk until 10 am, when the Café opens until 2 pm.

Saturday, September 24 is also “Seat Check Saturday”—a day to offer free child safety seat checks to the community.  The certified child passenger safety technicians from Preston L. Yancey will be at Lifetime Fitness’ back parking lot from 9 am until noon to offer the free safety checks to area families.  They will also display their “Pink Heals” information about firefighters’ national fight against cancer in women.
