January 2022 Goldfish Swim SchoolGoldfish Swim School is a premier learn-to-swim facility for kids ages four months to 12 years old. We use our proven, confidence-building curriculum to promote a love of swimming and teach your children to be safer in and around the water. Goldfish offers a shiver-free pool heated to 90-degrees all year long, a state-of-the-art water purification system to keep the pool clean and sanitized, year-round swim instruction with small class sizes, trained and certified swim instructors, and so much more.
Goldfish focuses on water safety in our classes and in the community. We provide free W.A.T.E.R. Safety Presentations for local schools, daycares, and businesses. The presentation is a fun 20-minute lesson focused on introducing kids to the concept of water safety and helping them learn safety methods to avoid potential dangers in and around the water. We bring gift bags for each kid, information for the families, and Bubbles, our mascot, even stops by.

February 2022 SLC Strength and Conditioning the mission of SLC Strength and conditioning is to help all individuals achieve their highest fitness goals by providing the Salt Lake Valley with access to a large professional exercise facility with state-of-the-art equipment, experienced coaching staff, and comprehensive services that consist of programmed group fitness classes, personal training, or utilizing the gym during Open Gym times. The quality of services you’ll experience at SLC Strength & Conditioning is mainly due to our highly educated, experienced, and professionally certified coaching staff. With that, all programming is designed and implemented in-house by their professional strength and conditioning coaches using peer-reviewed research and various training systems, and the workouts that you’ll experience are packed full of variety and individualized to fit your needs for optimal results, long-term success, and mitigated risk for injury. The SLC Strength and Conditioning team takes the thinking out of it, so all you have to do is show up and have confidence in knowing that your best interest and success are at the forefront!
In addition to providing high-quality customer and training services, community involvement is something they are passionate about. With that, they strive to support two or more local organizations each year through various fundraising efforts and events. Over the past five years in business, SLC Strength and Conditioning had the pleasure of giving back by providing extensive donation support to 15 different groups. In December, they hosted their annual food drive supporting the Utah Food Bank and just wrapped up our February “Fill the Sleeves” Campaign supporting Utah’s Best Friends Animal Society.

March 2022 Millcreek Nutrition Millcreek Nutrition provides a yummy healthy fast-food alternative and a happy experience. They are always looking for ways to contribute and give back to our community and have donated to fundraisers organized by Millcreek elementary and have brought protein waffles and healthy refreshers to all the teachers and staff. Millcreek Nutrition visited the city hall and several other businesses and donated meals and yummy treats to their entire team.
During the winter months, Millcreek Nutrition was able to bring hydration drinks to all the departments of St. Marks hospital. They do a lot of collaborations and events with other local businesses. They love to support other businesses by donating drinks to the grand opening parties and member appreciation days and giving them coupons and gift cards to create special prizes and raffles for their special events. We have also donated to the Utah food bank and incentivized customers to help us in that project.
