Mayor McQuiston proclaims August 25, 2025 as Fit N Wise Day in Decatur

Under the warm glow of city hall lights, Mayor Mike McQuiston welcomed attendees to the Decatur City Council meeting, marking a moment of unity with a moment of silence followed by the Pledge of Allegiance. The atmosphere was charged with community spirit as the council prepared to honor a local gem—Fit N Wise, named Business of the Month.

Fit N Wise, a cornerstone of health and wellness in Decatur since its establishment in 2000, has evolved from a modest 25,000 square foot facility to an impressive 72,000 square foot complex. The mayor highlighted its state-of-the-art amenities, which include group exercise rooms, a full aquatic center, and even physical therapy services. This growth reflects not just a business expansion but a commitment to fostering healthier lifestyles within the community.

The proclamation recognized Fit N Wise's dedication to community involvement, emphasizing its partnerships with local schools and support for various community events. Mayor McQuiston noted that the organization has consistently inspired residents of all ages to lead more active lives, contributing significantly to the overall vitality of Decatur.

As the mayor officially declared August 25, 2025, as Fit N Wise Day, the room erupted in applause, celebrating a business that has become synonymous with health and wellness in the area. Holly Berry, a representative from Fit N Wise, was invited to share her thoughts, promising to continue the mission of improving lives and fostering a healthier community.

This meeting not only celebrated a local business but also reinforced the city’s commitment to promoting health and wellness among its residents, leaving attendees with a sense of pride and anticipation for the future.
