Midway Motion and Fitness Events
Midway Gym is committed to providing a welcoming and supportive environment for members to achieve fitness goals and feel a sense of community. To ensure the gym is meeting member needs and continuously building community, we have launched a member-led events team. Midway understands that a gym is not just a place to work out but also a space where members can connect, share experiences, and build lasting friendships.
We have recently launched a monthly member happy hour, book/documentary club, nutrition workshops, etc.
Join one of our monthly events! Event dates, descriptions, etc. are listed in the Midway member app.

Cancer Awareness Week — Stand Together, Wear Purple
October 19–23 | Midway Gym
Every one of us has been touched by cancer in some way, whether through our own journey or that of a family member, friend, colleague, or neighbor.
This week, our Midway community is coming together in solidarity, remembrance, and hope.
We invite everyone to join us by wearing purple throughout the week to honor those fighting, celebrate survivors, and remember loved ones we have lost.
If you don't have purple to wear, stop by the front desk to pick up a ribbon to wear proudly.
You will also find paper purple ribbons available at the desk where you can write the name of a loved one or share a message of support to add to our community memorial wall.
Every ribbon tells a story, and every voice matters. Let's fill Midway with purple this week and show our community that no one fights alone.
