As our seasonal residents return to their northern homes, the fitness club welcomes a period of increased availability, with easier parking, and more open class and court times.
Following Jen Tait’s retirement, we are pleased to announce Leigh Anne Hall as our new club manager. I first encountered Leigh Anne in an exercise class, where her impressive form and enthusiastic demeanor immediately stood out. A part-time resident in 2020, she and her husband relocated permanently from Illinois in 2022, after their retirement.
Leigh Anne’s dynamic personality is evident in her extensive background. A Registered Dietitian by profession, she expanded her expertise into fitness instruction, eventually becoming the Wellness Manager for her hospital’s Wellness Department. “I continued teaching classes and oversaw the exercise programming for the hospital’s community outreach,” she explains.
Her passion for teaching is clear. Leigh Anne states, “I strive to inspire others to push their boundaries in their wellness journey. I believe my background equips me to build upon the strong foundation Jen established at the BSM Fitness Center. I am eager to collaborate with members across our fitness, pickleball, and tennis programs. We are committed to expanding our programs and I will dedicate myself to serving all our members.”
New Pickleball Committee Members Announced
We extend a warm welcome to Bev Gibson, Hoyt Hurt, Ginny Kim, and Eulalia Ralph, who will join the Pickleball Committee. They will play a vital role in fostering community engagement through social events, coaching initiatives, and tournament organization. These new members will collaborate with existing committee members David Allenick, Peter Feldhusen, Sid Smith, and Paul Venne. We also express our sincere gratitude to Paulette Gratton, Jacki Hill, and Linda Pettijohn for their dedicated service and contributions to the program’s growth.
