Last week, a new, on-site Employee Fitness Center was opened for free-of-charge use by ShindigZ Party Hosts. A grand Olympic Opening ceremony is planned for this Friday, February 12th at 8 a.m. to add to the spirit of encouraging daily exercise.
So far, 60 full-time ShindigZ employees have gone through equipment training that gives them access to treadmill, bicycle and elliptical machines. There’s a complete weight bench machine available as well for leg presses, pull-downs, arm curls and more. Jump ropes, exercise balls, and stretching videos are available as well.
