We had the monthly meeting of the minds this past weekend at Ageless, and once again, ideas were churning. Although the majority of the meeting was focused on the upcoming Spin-A-Thon, we did toss around some ideas regarding the B2 class on Friday evenings. Here’s what we confirmed:
- The B2 class will be moved up on Fridays to 7:00pm.
- You do NOT have to be a couple to attend. Friends, best friends, random people off the street.. It really doesn’t matter as long as you come with a partner.
Here’s where we need your help. We tossed around the idea of making this a family event, as well as making it outdoors. Essentially, we’d have the bootcamp at a park. It would only last 45 minutes. Kids can participate with their parents, even if they’re in a stroller, or they can play on the playground. Afterwards, if the park has a grill, we can grill hot dogs and have a small social event until it gets dark.
The downsides:
- Some parents use bootcamps to get away from their kids. Although members without kids can still enjoy a fun, outdoor workout, kids always add a little chaos to the mix.
- If it rains, it’s cancelled. Both gyms are too small to safely hold a bootcamp for adults and children.
- Big Brick Park in Gillespie would be an ideal location. However, we’re unsure of a location in Staunton. We’d like to alternate the location each workout.
- We will not have a babysitter there. You will be in charge of watching your own children unless a few members decide just to come hang out, and monitor the playground.
If this isn’t a popular idea, we can always just do what we originally were going to do – an adults-only, indoor partner bootcamp.
