I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer and enjoying a well-deserved break! Maybe, like me, you even got to see some incredible music and eat some fun foods at Stampede and K-Days 🤠🍔 In the Finance office, we are completing our analysis of the 2024-2025 season and learning how we can build upon its' successes. I am so very happy to report that AGF registered 53,041 individual members last year, which represents the fifth straight year of growth in registrations. 📈🤩 We have also welcomed some new gyms, and it has been amazing working with them. 👋 Furthermore, many of our other gyms have new staff coming in to take on new administrative roles and several of them have already contacted my office for advice and guidance, which is awesome. I am always happy to help, so feel free to message me with any questions. Back to the grind - I’m looking forward to reporting on all of the details to the clubs in the fall! I am also hoping that the ice cream truck stops by the office again; I am so craving a chocolate fudge sundae 🍨 |

If you could only listen to one genre of music for the rest of your life, which one would it be and why? 🎶🤔🎸🎤🎵

Mo - I’m going with R&B/Hip-hop. It's such a wide range of music and with beats that I feel like I could cover all of my favourite artists. ⭐️ Craig - Emo of course. ❤🥺👥🎧😊 Who doesn’t like their music to rip into their heart and soul, leaving them a satisfied emotional mess afterwards? 😆 Kate - I can’t pick a genre, but I pick an era - the 90s. There’s something good from everything in there! 🎤 Jacinda - I’m very all over the place with music, but folk would have to be my favourite. All kinds of rock, blues, roots, bluegrass, country, house. Chill vibes for the win! 🪕 Carolyn - I am not sure if I could pick just one type of music for the rest of my life but, if I have to, country is my favourite! 🎵 Breckyn - I think I would have to agree with Kate on this one! The 90s has the best of every genre in my opinion. 🎶 Jacqueline - I can’t just pick one. I love all different types of music for all my moods! 🙌 Robin - I have a very eclectic wide range of music that I love, from Louis Armstrong to Red Hot Chili Peppers to Eminem. My all time fav album is Metallica's collab with the San Francisco symphony. ✨ Haleigh - Definitely would have to be either Alternative or Metal for me. Those are my favourite genres, and there are so many sub-genres in those groupings that I would quite literally never get tired of listening to them over and over again. Some of my favourite bands and artists would be included in those genres, too! 🎸 |
