Congratulations to FFC Oak Park’s November member of the month, Debbie Ciambi! Debbie answered a few questions for us about being a member at FFC:

 

  1. What does membership at FFC mean to you? 

It gets my big butt to work out.

 

  1. When I am at FFC you will find me…

With my trainer, Jeff – he’s a great guy! You’ll also find me at the front desk with Josh, it’s great that he’s smiling and knows your name.
