FUELhouse News! March 2023 Edition 🍀

Welcome to March! Another month, another newsletter from FUELhouse! We're here to bring you more random knowledge you'll might not use, and some you might! Today is the start of Women's History Month. That's right everyone, a WHOLE MONTH! St. Patrick's Day is right around the corner and we have some fun happenings to announce.  

But first, a follow up from February's newsletter -- did Punxsutawney Phil see his shadow?!? Well, according to his IG page, he DID, which meant 6 more weeks of winter I'm very much feeling the truth of that prediction this week. And yes, you too can follow a groundhog on IG! What a wonderful world we live in  

Back to the good stuff... How can you celebrate Women's History Month? Well, you could start with understanding how it started! According to Census.gov Women’s History Month in the US can be tracked back to March 8th 1857 in New York City (NYC). Women from NYC factories staged a protest over poor working conditions. This lead to the the first Women's Day celebration in the U.S. (in NYC) in 1909. It only took 70 years for congress to establish a week to celebrate in 1981, and finally a month in 1987.

Fun census fact: Women are living longer than men   In 2021, there were about 1.6 million more females ages 85 and older (3.8 million) than males (2.2 million) in the U.S.  

Now back to the newsletter! Here are some things to look forward to in this March newsletter... 

  • A list of women's owned businesses around you  

  • Commitment Club members announced from February

  • Programming update from Coach Tiff!

  • February ZenPlanner workout tracking challenge winners

MARCH MEMBER OF THE MONTH:
REBECCA WILCOX

Rebecca has been with FUELhouse and Molly on and off for more than 10 years!! From bootcamp with Molly, to a short stint at FH 1.0, all the way to FH 2.0; Rebecca has truly seen the progression of FH. She came back to us by way of Foundations in June of 2021, and has been rocking group classes ever since. She’s a dedicated 7am'er with the once and a while 9am class thrown in. She recently started the Lifter small group series with Coach Sokol. She’s in the evening group on Tuesdays and Thursdays hanging with the evening peeps. We all love her attitude to keep going and trying different ways to continue moving. ALSO be sure to wish her a happy birthday on the 29th!  

Here are a few things our coaches had to say about Rebecca:

“Quiet and strong and consistent in the front corner. I enjoy her love of barbells and she’s always open to try and learn new skills. She’s definitely strong and stronger than I think she thinks she is! Can’t wait to hear her Stong Camp Lifter numbers!!” - Coach Kari


”I love having her in her corner spot in class . She’s always so easy to talk to, coachable, and has a great smile. Thanks for always showing up to work hard, safe and strong.” - Coach Hay
