Athlete of the Month - Laurel Kevin Mahoney
As a Senior, Kevin continues to build an impressive career both athletically and academically. On the football field, he is a three year letterman and a team captain for this year’s Spartan team. A tireless worker, Kevin has become one of the strongest players anchoring both sides of the line of scrimmage. Perhaps even more impressive has been his success as a member of Laurel’s track and field team. Last season he placed 2nd in shot put and 3rd in discus at the WPIAL Championships, followed by placing 6th in discus and 8th in shot at the PIAA Championships.
Off the field, Kevin is equally impressive. He holds a 4.135 GPA and is currently ranked third in the class of 2026. He is an active member of Holy Spirit Parish and volunteers at the food pantry. After graduation, Kevin plans on attending a four year university majoring in chemical engineering. Kevin is the son of Kevin and Kathy Mahoney.

Dear AIR Fitness Member,

We hope this message finds you well. We’re reaching out to inform you of an AIR Fitness membership rate adjustment that will take effect on September 1, 2025.

Since opening our doors on Lawrence Avenue in 2008, AIR Fitness has proudly maintained the same pricing while continually working to provide a clean, safe, and welcoming environment with high-quality equipment and services. However, due to rising operational costs, a price adjustment is necessary to ensure we can continue to maintain—and enhance—the facilities, equipment, and level of service you’ve come to expect.

Updated Membership Pricing:
· Senior/Student/Veteran: $30/month (basic membership)
· Single: $35/month
· Double: $65/month
· Family: $85/month
· Child Add-On +$10/month
· Use of Pool in New Castle (except for pool group fitness classes) +$20/month
·
· 1-Day Pass: $10
· 7-Day Pass: $20
· 6-Class Bundle: $55
· Wellness Program (must begin in physical therapy) Tiers +$35/$45/$55/month

If your basic membership is currently covered through a health insurance program such as Tivity, Silver Sneakers, WellHub, or Renew Active, your basic membership will continue to be fully paid. Please note that these programs do not include access to the pool, which will incur an additional charge if you choose to use it.

No Action Required (Unless You Wish to Cancel):
If you’d like to continue your membership, no action is needed. The new rates will be applied automatically to your next billing cycle. If you wish to cancel, we’ll be sorry to see you go—please contact us by August 14, 2025, to ensure that autopayments are stopped in time.

Free Personal Trainer Session for Members:
As a token of our appreciation, we’re offering all members a complimentary 30-minute Q&A session with one of our personal trainers at our Ellwood City location. This session is not a workout, but a trainer will explain how to safely and effectively use all gym equipment, including aerobic machines, HOIST, and plate-loaded machines. Please stop by the front desk to schedule your session.

We sincerely appreciate your continued support and loyalty.

Thank you,

Dan Zelch
