September 2021
As September's member profile, Dulette was excited to share her CGC experiences and how healthy living is a big part of her life. Her passion for being active is evident from the moment you meet her! Originally from Turks and Caicos, she moved to Halifax in 2019 and soon became a member at the CGC after taking a tour with a friend. She knew after seeing the CGC that it was the right fit for her. Dulette is excited to train here twice a day and feels motivated walking through the doors every time.
