Some take up sports only for a season but at The Fitness League, members stick around for 60 years.
This year marks the league’s 60th anniversary and to celebrate, they awarded long-time members.
They also held a cabaret show at the Roosevelt Recreation Centre and performers Dave Abbott and Vanessa Palm entertained members, their families and friends.
Later certificates were handed out to long-term members.
