This partnership with Midlands Anchor profiled local women in fitness who are influencers in the health and fitness industry. Fit Columbia interns and staff members spent one year meeting, interviewing and training with the fitness professionals and captured the experiences in monthly interviews in Midlands Anchor. The series culminated in a public event that honored the women, and "raised" thousands of dollars in through a Fitness Fueled Fundraising Series of donation based classes. The public event will be held October 19, 2017 and we will present a check to WREN from each of the event series participants.
