Use of the Fitness Center & Spa continues to grow enabled by a growing and truly expert staff along with new and varied clas- ses. Many of the trainers and spa personnel have continued at Frenchman’s Creek for many years. They are an amazing dedi- cated group with individuals that continue to upgrade their edu- cational certifications. Frenchman’s Creek residents are blessed with superb physical facilities and wonderful staff. As a result increasing numbers of members are spending increasing time in the Fitness Center thus attaining better physical condition and health. Marisol Jimenez, the Director, organizes a staff of sixty (60) and schedules forty-five (45) weekly programs, not to mention the numerous holiday programs. Marisol is doing an outstand- ing job in her first year with this responsibility. She was instru- mental in the purchase of new equipment such as the Peloton

bikes. Her main focus is to continue with current health and wellness trends.

In order to accommodate the increasing use of the facilities, there is continued preliminary discussion for the expansion of the current physical plant and/or the addition of a separate spa facility with more current and competitive lifestyle elements.

The Fitness Center is an amazing facility with so much to offer everyone in the Community.

Your Food and Beverage Committee was quite active this year. The Go Green Initiative replaced styrofoam cups, plas- tic straws and to-go boxes with biodegradable alternatives. Our first Food and Film Festival was held over eight consecu- tive weeks featuring food, beverage and films from the re- spective countries. New dinner menus throughout the dining venues received many positive reviews. Many of our members felt the lunch and dinner menu items made a dramatic improvement. Dis- plays of weekly lunch specials made a positive impact. An a la carte menu at The Grille was well received.

Menus now have gluten free and vegan signs to help guide our members. A healthy Grab and Go snack at the fitness center pool outlet was tried. Our wine dinners (gourmet, ultimate, winemaker) were well attended and now have a strong follow- ing. The Chef’s Table continues to be quite popular and was featured in a new member event. On a final note, I again would like to sincerely thank our won- derful and dedicated staff who works endless hours to make Frenchman’s Creek a joy for all of us.
