NEWS FROM BROCKLEHURST, WESTSYDE, NORTH KAMLOOPS
NO LIMIT TO GETTING HEALTHY ON NORTH SHORE The Malone’s on 8th saga has come to an end — and the Maywoods’ dream has come true. Darren and Maria Maywood, along with Andrew and Lisa Watson, purchased the Eighth Street building in North Kamloops and turned it into No Limits Fitness. “We got it for a smoking deal,” said Maria, who runs boot camp classes at No Limits, among other fitness activities. “What a great building.” Among the amenities at No Limits: New fitness equipment, a boot-camp facility, squash and racquetball courts, tanning beds and stand-up booths, a liquid bar, saunas, steams and relaxation rooms. “We’re trying to do something epic,” Maria said. “We have some great investors and people who believe in us.” Andrew Watson is the former pres-
ident of Voda Computer Systems Ltd. Calgary-based Graycon Group Ltd., an IT consulting firm, acquired Voda last year and Watson became manager of Graycon’s B.C. region. “He’s got the business experience,” Maria said. “We’ve got the fitness end of it covered.” Maria is known in the community for her Femsport exploits and she “loves extreme and advanced athletes,” but the gym will cater to more than just the elite. “We are going to try and have a little bit of everything,” she said. Memberships are now on sale. Call No Limits at 778-470-5550 for details. Patrons can purchase bundle packages that include the use of all of No Limits’ amenities. “It’s so friggin’ exciting,” she said. “Our dreams are finally coming true.”
