2022 April MOTM Kathy Barnes

Pearce would like to recognize Kathy Barnes as our April Member of the Month!

Kathy has been a member of Pearce since 2014! She was thrilled to find out that when she moved to Chillicothe there was a fitness facility that had an indoor pool as she has always loved to swim.

In addition to enjoying swimming in our indoor pool, Kathy loves the friendships at Pearce. She says, “the friends that I have made here have made my new life in Chillicothe much nicer”.

Kathy participates in many of our group exercise classes. While she participates in Zumba, Cardio & Toning, and Silver Sneakers, Aqua Aerobics is her favorite! Kathy states, “working out at Pearce keeps me active and healthier than I would be without it”. She points out that it also helps with her mental health.

In her free time, she enjoys reading, crossword puzzles, traditional puzzles, swimming, traveling and she loves spending time with her grandchildren.

When asked what advice she would pass on to other members said, “don’t be afraid to try out some group exercise classes. You may find you enjoy them”.

An inspirational thought that Kathy lives by never says I can’t, always say I’ll try.

Thank you, Kathy, for choosing to be a Pearce member!
