A birthday celebration to remember...
In August, one-year gym member Slade Neilson celebrated his 28th birthday. Slade’s mother called the front desk in advance to ask if it would be OK for her to bring in a birthday cake and surprise Slade on his birthday at the gym.
She told us that in the past year, the gym had become such an important part of Slade’s life, and it had helped him make a huge change in the way he looks and feels, that she could not think of a better place for her son to celebrate his birthday.
Her comments were right on target.
The entire staff at the gym has taken notice of Slade’s progress over the past year.
He even competed in our bench press contest in July and showed a great deal of strength for someone who had never bench pressed before.

Happy belated birthday, Slade!
Thank you for celebrating it here with us at Gold's Montrose!
