What is "Member Freebies"?
It's sooo easy! "Member Freebies" is a member appreciation program created to reward loyal members for their commitment to fitness.
As a member of club, you will earn "freebie" points by using the club's services, referring a friend, family member or co-worker which you can accumulate and redeem for "freebies" & "discounts" at The Fitness Factory. Redeem points for protein shakes, smoothies, t-shirts, sweatshirts, and lots more....
Ask us about it during your next workout. |
