Dear, My oldest son is 7yrs old and he attended Menlo Gym when he was younger. Now he would like to join the Gym again. His brother is 3yrs old, and he is very sad about not being able to attend his Saturday gym classes since the lockdown started. I am sure that my family is one of the thousands that value Menlo Gym as an excellent asset provided by the city of Menlo Park. There is no other place like that in the Peninsula and it would be a real loss for our community if Menlo Gymnastics closes. It is vitally important to provide places like this to the practice of physical activity for the community, especially the youngster that will, hopefully, will grow up avoiding sedentarism thereby lowering the rates of obesity, heart conditions, and diabetes and are therefore less likely to have severe cases of diseases such as Coronaviruses. Please take this into consideration and keep our Gym open, it would be irresponsible to do otherwise! Yours sincerely, Elis and Hamish Barney Received on Mon May 18 2020 - 18:39:27 PDT
