Update on the future of the gym in Ridgefield

Ridgefield's largest fitness facility, the gym, closed its doors suddenly on Thursday, October 12, leaving members stunned. Many have asked questions as to why? What's next?

We received a statement from an anonymous source regarding the gym's future and the current state of affairs.

Business operations of the gym have been suspended by the State of Connecticut due to unpaid taxes by the owners.   

There is a small group of people working together to create a new entity. The location and timing are to be determined and updates will be provided as soon as possible.

The gym was opened in July of 2013 by Seth Hirschel who purchased the Ridgefield Fitness Club from Sue and Jim Johnstone. We interviewed Hirschel in 2013 when he opened the gym. Read it here.

Stay tuned. We will provide you updates when they are available.
