Open House at the Caring House in Durham
Wednesday, April 28, 2010Every year for our annual Train the Trainer event we sponsor a charity that gives a lot to the community. Our open house is on Saturday and kicks off with a mass boot camp that’ll help you jump start your day. Come out and see is!
This year it’s the Caring House in Durham. Caring House is a home-away-from-home to adults receiving outpatient treatment at the Duke Comprehensive Cancer Center (DCCC). The average stay is 18 days, with our shortest stay being 1 day and our longest 25 weeks. Most guests are from North Carolina, but almost 1/3 are out-of- state visitors and a percentage of those individuals are from other countries.

Train the Trainer is Back!
Wednesday, April 21, 2010Empower Personal Training is hosting the fourth annual train the trainer. It will be held on Saturday, May 1st.
Proceeds from the event will benefit the Caring House (link) which is a special place that provides adult cancer patients and accompanying caregivers with a comfortable, supportive, and affordable place to stay during outpatient treatment at the Duke Comprehensive Care Center (DCCC).
Come at 10:00 AM for a FREE boot camp that will be kid friendly and a lot of fun. From 11:00-12:00 we will have an open house where people can do a tour of the facility, get a free chair massage, and enjoy refreshments with the staff. The insanity begins at 12:00 PM when our clients will be able to purchase blocks of time to train their trainers! Each $25 donation to the Caring House (tax deductible) will earn you 5 minutes with your trainer.
We look forward to seeing you all on Saturday, May 1st to support this great cause and have some fun!
