July 2020 Member of the Month

Pearce Celebrates Maureen Shepard as our July Member of the Month!
Maureen has been a member of Pearce since 2012, enjoying our facility’s convenient location, Maureen joined after retiring from teaching special education in the IVC School District. She quickly adapted a new routine to stay active while no longer working, and says she loves that she can exercise with her friends!
Attending several of our Group Fitness Classes over her eight-years of membership, Maureen’s favorite classes include TRX and Power Core. Maureen said she loves the social benefits of group classes as much as the physical benefits, stating, “Having a group fitness class to attend gets me up and out every morning. All of the classes are a great way to exercise and stay in touch with community members.”
Along with group exercise, she regularly uses our indoor pool, and has attended a variety of events hosted in the facility.
In her free time, Maureen enjoys reading, cooking, gardening, and hiking — encouraging everyone to be inspired to spend time outdoors. “I think it’s important to get outside every day and enjoy nature.”
Her and her husband also like to travel — taking road trips on their motorcycle, and spending time with their six grandkids.
Maureen’s advice to fellow Pearce members: “We are lucky to have such a nice facility in our small town, so try to take advantage of it!”
Thank you, Maureen, for your continued dedication and support!
