SNAP Fitness is open for business

Members of the Grand Island Chamber of Commerce and elected town officials celebrated with SNAP Fitness General Manager Maryanne Fechter on Monday, Jan. 30, at a ribbon-cutting ceremony. SNAP Fitness is a new gym open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, located at 2055 Baseline Road.

Gym owners Bridget Kelley and Jim Busshart own several other SNAP Fitness gyms in Western New York, but have been looking to open another gym on Grand Island for a while. After researching the area and looking at Grand Island's demographics they knew this would be a successful place to do business.

The space was occupied and the company started renovations in September, and the doors were open for their first day of business on Dec. 12. The fitness center is full of new equipment and offers many services. An athletic trainer is available by appointment and members can use the interactive www.mysnapfitness.com website for incentives and wellness programs to help track their progress.

Discounts are offered to groups, businesses, students 18 years and older, military, U.S. Border Patrol, and fire and police personnel. Family and individual memberships are available at a reasonable price. Free one-week trials are available.
