Wayne & Jerry

We're shining the spotlight on not just one, but two of our most dedicated members at the Statesville Fitness & Activity Center—Wayne & Jerry!

Wayne (left) has been a regular here for nearly two years and loves the friendly members and welcoming environment.

Jerry (right) has also been with us for two years, enjoying the variety of equipment and, most importantly, the amazing community that makes the center feel like home.

But let’s be real—if you’ve visited the center, you probably know these two best for dominating the ping pong table in our lobby! 🏓 

Whether they’re locked in an intense match or simply greeting everyone who walks in (they’ve affectionately earned the title of our “Walmart Greeters” 🙃), you are sure to find these two with a smile. Challenge them to a friendly game or just take a moment to say hello! 👋

Next time you see them, challenge them to a game or take a moment to say hello! 👋
