DOTHAN, Ala. (WDNews) — Planet Fitness is giving local teens a free way to stay active this summer through its High School Summer Pass™ program, running June 1 to August 31 at more than 2,500 locations across the U.S. and Canada, including its Dothan club.
High school students ages 14 to 19 can register online at PlanetFitness.com/SummerPass or in person. Teens under 18 must have a parent or guardian’s consent.
The program, launched in coordination with Mental Health Awareness Month, promotes physical and mental wellness for teens during summer break. Planet Fitness reports that 94% of teens face mental and emotional health struggles, and regular exercise is shown to reduce stress and improve mood.
“As the leader in fitness, Planet Fitness is proud to invest in today’s youth during this important time in their lives,” said Interim CEO Craig Benson in an earlier press release.
Nearly 3 million teens have participated in the program since it began, completing more than 12 million workouts. The initiative provides access to fitness equipment, group classes, and certified trainers—at no cost.
Local families are encouraged to take advantage of the opportunity, giving teens a safe, supportive space to stay active, build confidence, and develop lifelong fitness habits during the summer months.
