Management Message
from General Manager Bryan Lennon &

We continually work to deliver new fitness programming to help you, our members, improve the quality and quantity of your lives. To deliver those programs and services, we strive to provide you expert, top-notch staff.

Since January, we've welcomed two new teammates to oversee our Cooper Quest member wellness program as well as a new manager for our youth camps and programs.
