HURON — Anytime Fitness invites you to “Climb for a Cause” Sept. 9-15.
There is no better time to show your support for firefighters in their selfless efforts to save lives and honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice on Sept. 11, 2001.
Club members and the community can make a $5 donation for every 15 minutes on the stair climber. Climb 110 flights of stairs, representing 110 floors of the WorldTrade Center, or participate in as many steps as you choose. Any donation amount is welcome, regardless of steps climbed.
All proceeds will be given to the local fire department, helping educate our youth in Fire Prevention.
Stop by Anytime Fitness, 2325 Dakota Ave. N., or call 605-554-1555 to schedule your time.
