SEPTEMBER Member Of The Month — SAM HUESER
Some people show up for a gym, some people show up for the people in it; Sam does both!
He’s the kind of person who will mow someone’s lawn, jump-start a friend’s car so they can make it to the gym (it’s me, I’m the friend) or step in when someone needs assistance with anything. When we host a meet, he’s one of the first people we can count on to volunteer setting up, tearing down, loading bars, and doing whatever needs to be done
That’s community; Not just saying you’re part of one, but being willing to give your time and effort to make it better for everyone else.
Sam also embodies one of Heartland’s core values, Resilience. Life has given him plenty of reasons not to show up, but he continues to recognize the value of taking care of himself. Sometimes it’s a hard training session and other times it’s moving for 20 minutes, but then sometimes it just means coming in just to talk to friends.
And most importantly, Sam has taken it upon himself to declare POSITIVITY WEEK when he senses any excess negative energy in the air or a big meet or heavy day is coming. During that week absolutely ZERO negative talk is tolerated at all 🙅🏼♀️
And that consistency, choosing to keep showing up, for yourself and for other people, is something we’re incredibly proud to have in our community.
Thanks for being someone we can count on, Sam! We’re lucky to have you!
