LifeCenter Plus to Get New Owners

Business Partners Extend Offer to Purchase Health & Fitness Club. End Quote

Akron, OH (1888PressRelease) March 17, 2011 - LifeCenter Plus is pleased to announce that the health and fitness club located at 5133 Darrow Road in Hudson, just north of the Stow border, has signed a definitive purchase agreement to sell the business to two area businessmen.

"We are very excited about this opportunity," said one of the potential new owners. "LifeCenter Plus has so much promise with a great facility, qualified trainers, a strong family orientation, and a loyal membership."

The new owners are eager to further improve the facility with the goal of creating an even more vibrant club where working out is fun. While many of the existing programs will continue, plans are already underway to launch new programs and provide additional opportunities for family fun, fitness, corporate wellness events, and fitness challenges such as a road race.

As one of Northeastern Ohio's premier health and fitness facilities, LifeCenter Plus has been serving the Hudson, Stow and surrounding communities since 1978. The LifeCenter Plus building began as an ice skating rink in the 1970's and later became the premier Racquetball Club, which further developed into a racquet and fitness club. Today the 103,000-square foot multipurpose facility, which employs approximately 140 people, is a full-service, four-season health and fitness facility with degreed, certified fitness staff and personal trainers. The fitness club offers individually designed programs and group classes for members. LifeCenter Plus facilities include a fitness center with TechnoGym strength-training and cardio equipment; five swimming pools including an Outdoor Aquatic Center; Spinning Studio; Pilates, Yoga and Tai Chi Studios; indoor track; rock climbing wall; the famous outdoor BootCamp program, Kids Klub fitness programs and more.

In 2008, LifeCenter Plus earned the distinction of being listed in the Guinness Book of World records with the "Largest Aqua Aerobic Display" in the world, when over 273 people performed choreographed water aerobics simultaneously in LifeCenter Plus' two indoor pools. Three years in a row, in 2007, 2008, and 2009, LifeCenter Plus was honored by Aquatics International Magazine with the "Best in Aquatics" Award. The Best of Aquatics Awards celebrates the industry's outstanding aquatics facilities of all varieties-including government, nonprofit and privately owned operations. Entries are judged on programming, promotional materials, aquatic amenities and community involvement.

LifeCenter Plus expects the sale to be completed later this spring.
