LOOKING FORWARD
A NEW CLUB IN TOOELE
Throughout 2022 we laid plans to open a new Club building in Tooele that will feature a new gym, multiple computer labs, game rooms, and room to grow. We have also partnered with WholeKids Wellness to create a space they can use both during Club hours and after to share resources to increase well being, healing, and mental health support in Tooele! It will open summer of 2023.
