The Ninth Annual Meeting was held on September 27th at the beautiful home of our Board Chairman, Erin Murphy-Goodman. We had a successful event to celebrate the conclusion of our 9th year providing a healthier lifestyle to our deserving youth, raising $20,000! One of the DFF scholarship recipients, Richie, attended and wanted everyone to know how much he loves gymnastics classes!

Thank you to all of our donors, sponsors and volunteers for making this such a successful event!

A special thank you to Erin and Justin Goodman for the incredible event venue!

"Bryce really enjoys going to gymnastics every week. The biggest improvement we've seen due to gymnastics is improvement in depth perception. Bryce used to hesitate jumping down off of things, but now it's no problem. We have also noticed improvement in upper body strength and balance. Thank you Discover Fitness Foundation!" - Bryce's Mother
