It is FINALLY here!!!

We truly have Christmas in July at the Wellness Center!


Our brand-new 4-person universal gym has officially arrived, replacing the equipment that faithfully served us since 2019. After years of daily use, the old machine was showing significant wear—especially on the cables—but thanks to the generous support of the FCMC Foundation, we were able to purchase a new commercial-grade unit that will serve our wellness program for years to come.

The "JLG" lunch crew was kind enough to help us christen the new equipment and pose for a few photos while putting it to work! A special thank-you to Eric Frankhouser, Justin Ross, Shawn Boyd, and Kyle Witter for demonstrating the new machine and, more importantly, for their ongoing commitment to fitness. We appreciate them showing up during their lunch breaks each day to make wellness a priority and set a great example for others.

Member Spotlight

"Dr Mandak suggested I get involved with an exercise program. He directed me to the Wellness Center. At this point, I was getting more and more concerned about my balance. My balance has really improved since I began going to the gym. I have met several old friends and made new acquaintances in the gym. Attending the wellness center has been great for me physically and socially."
