Two Planet Fitness^® locations owned by PLNTF Holdings group received a community enhancement award for their work with the local chamber of commerce. Both locations are in Des Plaines, Illinois. The mayor of Des Plaines, Matthew Bogusz, presented the award at the annual state of the city breakfast.

The award was given for several initiatives the clubs undertook in partnership with the chamber of commerce. One initiative was the Veteran’s Back-to-Work Bootcamp, which is a program designed to provide support for those who have served their country. Another was the Women in Business Power Hour, which was a networking event for women hosted at Planet Fitness. These, however, are not the only programs in which PLNTF got involved in their community!

Planet Fitness team members came out to accept the award. Melvin Vega, general manager of the Lee Street location; Moe Dunker, general manager of the Golf Road location; and Regional Training Manager Kelsey Sloter were in attendance.
