Outwardly Active
Come on out and have some physical fun with Fitness 101.
Every month, Fitness 101 offers an Outwardly Active event
for members, friends, and family. It’s a great
opportunity to get out and enjoy a variety of physical
activities. Some of our past events have included
paintball, indoor rock climbing, and beach volleyball just
to name a few. Upcoming events will include indoor beach
volleyball, snow tubing, and cross country skiing. If
you are
interested in joining us on any of these Outwardly Active
adventures, contact Jordan Geehan at ext. 4802.
Squash League
We have just concluded our fall squash season here at
Fitness 101. I’d like to take the time to thank our

The winter squash league will start up on January
19th, 2004. This five-week session will run through until
February 16th, 2004. At the end of the scheduled

This will give all of you league members the chance to

The league takes place Monday nights between
5:00pm-9:30pm, with players ranging from beginner to
