Dear friends of the goPerformance family,

On March 16, Governor Hogan of Maryland, ordered all non-essential businesses to close in the wake of the CoVid-19 pandemic, which included goPerformance & Fitness.  Now, going into the 6th week of being closed to our members, the gym is struggling to pay the bills that will allow us to re-open once we are allowed to do so.  

For the last seven years, goPerformance has been more than just a gym, it has been a community centerpiece of Clarksburg.  Our members know to expect not only an amazing workout, but also the personal attention from our staff that makes them feel like part of the family.  Amongst our members there are valuable friendships of support that exist inside and outside the gym.  These friendships, along with the care and passion of our staff members, is what makes goPerformance more than a gym.  We've become an integral part of our members' lives.

Receiving financial support from a fundraiser like the Cardio-A-Thon, will allow us to pay essential expenses that still exist during the closure, such as rent and keeping staff onboard.  At this time, we have not received any government funds to help keep us afloat, and there is no certainty that we will receive any of those support loans.  Our goal is to continue providing our members with a way to stay healthy at home while the gym is closed and when we are able to - workouts at the gym.  Getting to the point where we can return to somewhat normal operations will take time and we need financial help to bridge that gap.  

To help support this campaign, please sponsor your favorite goPerformance member as they participate in half-hour increments of our 24-Hour Cardio-A-Thon.  You can mention the name of the member you are supporting in the comment section of your donation, which may be a flat donation, or per minute - whatever works best for you.  Alternatively, you can donate in honor of the entire goPerformance team that will complete 24-Hours of Cardio on this special event beginning May 1 at 5:30PM and run through May 2 at 5:30PM.

We look forward to serving the Clarksburg community as a source of health and wellness, as well as a friendly gym that our members call home for many years to come.  Thank you for your support - it means the world to us!
