Crunch Fitness Bee Ridge is once again lighting up the holiday season with its heartwarming tradition. Following the Thanksgiving festivities, the gym has decorated its center with a Christmas tree adorned with tags bearing requests for toys and clothes for children in need.  For years, Crunch Bee Ridge has fostered a sense of community and giving during the holiday season with this annual gift drive. Members enthusiastically participate by selecting a tag from the tree, fulfilling the requested item, wrapping it and placing it under the tree with the child's name. This act of kindness not only brings joy to those receiving the gifts but also encourages a spirit of compassion and generosity among the local Sarasota community.  With every request fulfilled by the generous members of Crunch, the collected donations will be sent to two deserving organizations: Grandparents Raising Grandchildren and the Hippy Program (Home Instruction for Parents of Preschool Youngsters). These organizations play a crucial part in aiding grandparents as they navigate their challenging responsibilities and supporting parents to enhance the early development of their children, respectively. CR Fitness Holdings LLC. is led by veteran industry leaders Vince Julien, Geoff Dyer,Tony Scrimale, and Jeff Dotson, who combined have more than 150 years ofexperience in the fitness industry. Crunch Bee Ridge opened its doors eleven years agoin Sarasota Florida. Presently, the CR Fitness Holdings team operates 58 locations inFlorida, Georgia, North Carolina, and Texas with a goal of reaching 100 clubs by 2026.
