Our local gym here in St.Peter’s, Cape Breton, NS is closing November 26, 2021.

Our gym had been opened for over 20 years and has had years with over 200 members. Our community NEEDS a gym!!! People of all ages depend on the gym for both mental and physical health reasons.

We have a strong close community here in the village of St.Peter’s and we have found a new location for the gym and have some planning already underway.

However, we need to come up with money to purchase the equipment and for renovations and all the other things that come with starting a gym.

We are on a tight schedule and need money fast to purchase the equipment before it leaves our community. If you can help in anyway it would be greatly appreciated!!!

Testimonials from community gym members :

“The gym is my safe place!!”

“The gym keeps me young at heart!!! And keeps my body moving!!”

“When I heard that the gym in St Peter’s had closed down I was instantly concerned about the mental well-being of myself, and others especially during this time of year. We have many people in our community that depend on this facility. Seniors, addicts, people with mental health issues, people who are doing physio or rehab, the list goes on and on. Knowing that there is a very good possibility that a gym will re-open warms my heart”

“Without the gym my mental health will deter. Going to the gym helps me with stress”

“I can’t imagine not having the gym - it’s part of my life. My daily routine!”

“I feel so much better after working out!!”

“I start my day by going to the gym for my mental and physical health!”

“It does wonders for mental health”
