Submitted by Motivations Fitness<\/em><\/p>\n

After a successful 30 years as a mainstay in the Huntsville fitness industry, it is with definite mixed emotions we announce that we (Lorraine, Kym, and Mark) have decided to retire and to dissolve the corporation of Motivations Fitness. It is our intention to begin the process of liquidation immediately and look to the end of September for our official closure. It has become increasingly clear that the future of fitness is headed in a new direction and we must adjust our goals and plans accordingly.<\/p>\n

<\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n

At this time, we would like to offer an acknowledgement and thank you for the support and encouragement provided to Motivations Fitness by Mayor Terziano and the elected officials of the Town of Huntsville. Our tenure in Muskoka has given us the opportunity to meet and partner with so many people and organizations that have given selflessly to make this town better and stronger. We remain committed to the Town of Huntsville and its resilience, we will continue to work to encourage both physical and mental health and wellness.<\/p>\n

As we head to retirement, we say a HUGE thank you to all of our Motivators! You have given us 28-plus years of wonderful memories, friendships, and a front-row seat to so many incredible, brave transformations! We are thankful and inspired by your humour, loyalty, and your dedication to your goals. Thank you to all of our staff members, past and present\u2014we are thankful for your time with us. Motivations Nation truly was a family!<\/p>\n

Today more than ever we hold a steadfast belief in the importance of our mandate: ‘health and fitness for every body’. We hope it will inspire each and every one of you to stay strong, stay healthy, and believe in yourself.<\/p>\n

Yours in fitness,<\/p>\n

Lorraine vanLuit, Kym Bice, and Mark O\u2019Dell, co-owners, Motivations Fitness<\/p>\n
