I really just did not feel like I had ANYTHING to blog about before. Now that I have a new job and some more interesting things(hopefully) going on maybe I can get this going and keep up with it more.
Well, like I said, I have a new job! :-D I absolutely love it. I am the Fitness Attendant at the Fitness Center at Congressional Country Club. Only the top Country Club in the Country, no biggie.

My boss had actually just started working at Congressional as well. She moved from California to be the Director of the Fitness Center.
She is an amazing boss. I love how encouraging and confident she is in herself and employees. She has been giving me lots of responsibility and challenges.
Through her I've connected with the Youth Events department.
I help out with the different events they have here for the kids. We've done lots of different things from laser tag, to movie nights, to cookie decorating, to mother/daughter brunch, and so much more. It has been a wonderful time learning the ropes at the Club.
More recently we had a New Year New You event for the Fitness Center and I was tasked with planning and organizing a kids program for it. We had the event on Sunday, Jan. 26th. It was a HUGE success. The Fitness Center had many members come out to partake in the different classes and consults with trainers. We also had our Chef do a cooking demo and there were some superfood tastings as well.
Also, another huge thing is my friend from high school, Alex, started making these power bars called Ever Bars a couple years back. My boss gave us some superfood samples for Christmas and one of them was hemp seeds. I already knew all about them because that's the main ingredient in my friends Ever Bars. Long story short I mentioned the bars to my boss, brought her a sample, got my friend and interview, and he came out to the event to do a booth there. Now we are starting to sell the bars at the Fitness Center. It is so awesome! I'm incredibly happy my boss was able and willing to make this happen for Alex. hopefully this will help his business to really take off. Check it out here: Ever Bar Facebook Page
Oh and the kids part of the event was highly praised as well. I still have members/parents telling me how awesome it was and that we should have more kids classes and events.
Soon after all that, my boss tasked me with heading up several other Kids Fitness events. She asked me to come up with four ideas to spread out over the year. So I googled, brainstormed, and googled some more.
I was able to find great inspiration online and in magazines. Once I had my basic ideas down I presented them to my boss. She was excited about all of them. Especially about one in particular event that will be happening in September. I don't want to unveil it just yet. You'll just have to be patient and wait. But it's GOOD!
I will tell you that for March and April I'm setting up a girls Zumba & Yoga night and A Race for Health(obstacle course with trivia). Both which should be a lot of fun. I'll let ya know how they go.
Ta ta for now!
