Sponsor Spotlight: Orangetheory Fitness Cumming GA There’s a new state of the art fitness studio coming to town! Have you heard? Orangetheory Fitness is making a splash in Forsyth County and we’re excited to share all about it with you! What is Orangetheory Fitness? Orangetheory Fitness is a total body workout – you’ll get cardio, strength and power training during each workout session through a variety of exercises & equipment. Each workout session is led by a Professional Fitness Coach so you’ll never be at a loss for “how” to exercise – but rather you’ll be guided, encouraged & motivated throughout its entirety! What makes Orangetheory different? During a workout, everyone wears a heart-rate monitor for tracking. This tool will help both you & your Coach know exactly how hard you’re pushing yourself to best maximize your workout & make sure you don’t over train or under train. I absolutely LOVE this idea!! Better yet, the workout results can be emailed to you and you can even wear the heart monitor for workouts at home to continue keeping track of your progress! Are you ready for results? The Orangetheory Fitness studio is results driven & that’s just what they’re motivated to get for you. Your workout will never be the same but yet it’s tailored – so whether you’re currently a couch potato, a 5-star athlete or somewhere in between, Orangetheory is ready to help you get the results you’re looking for. And with workouts available from 5am to 9pm, you’re sure to find a session that can fit your schedule! So what are you waiting for? Connect with...

This was the first open water swim for our local swimmers who train at the Cumming Aquatic Center with the North Georgia Aquatics swim team. North Georgia Aquatics is accepting new swimmers of all abilities to try out for the year-round swim team. Everyone had a great time for this worthy event and we look forward to next year’s...
