Dear BridgeMill Athletic Club Members,

Here we are a few months into the new year and we hope you are finding new and fun ways to meet your health and fitness goals with our BFit classes and open gym hours. We have appreciated all of the member feedback and participation in our new programs and our 24hour member gym accessibility.

Unfortunately, we have identified an increasing issue happening during some of these open hours. We have recorded numerous instances of members with 24-hour access fobs opening the doors to individuals without access fobs. This is a violation of our 24-hour access policy that our members agreed to upon acceptance of the access fob. Allowing unauthorized people to access to our private facilities puts safety and security at great risk.

To address the increase in these incidents, we have implemented a new camera system that monitors all access points in real time. Members found assisting others in unauthorized entry, and thereby violating the policy, will be subject to penalties that could include membership suspension for repeated violations.

It is our intent that the enforcement of these rules will contribute to maintaining a safe and purposeful atmosphere within the fitness center. Your cooperation and commitment to these guidelines will play a crucial role in upholding the integrity of our gym community. Together, we can create a space where everyone feels secure and can fully enjoy the benefits of a dedicated fitness environment.

Please review the attached updated 24-hour access policy. And, should you have any concerns about safety, security or behavior at the fitness center, please do not hesitate to contact the Fitness Center Director at 770-324-3175.

Thank you for your attention and support in this matter.

Best Regards,

Andrea Mathis andrea.mathis@hmsgolf.com

Harnessing Fitness Trackers for Health and Wellness

In today's health-conscious world, fitness trackers have emerged as essential companions for individuals striving to maintain an active lifestyle. These sleek devices, worn on the wrist or clipped to clothing, offer a host of benefits that can transform your approach to fitness.

One of the primary advantages of fitness trackers is their ability to provide real-time insights into your activity levels. By monitoring metrics like steps taken, distance traveled, calories burned, and sleep patterns, these devices offer a holistic view of your overall health and fitness habits. This data empowers you to set achievable goals, track your progress, and make informed decisions about your well-being.

Moreover, fitness trackers serve as powerful motivators, inspiring you to stay active and engaged in your fitness journey. With features such as goal setting, activity challenges, and rewards for hitting milestones, these devices make exercise fun and rewarding.

Additionally, the ability to connect with friends or online communities fosters a sense of accountability and camaraderie, further encouraging you to stay on track with your workouts.
