Burke's Fitness Battle

Burke's Fitness Battle Returns September 22nd! 

Form your teams and join the Battle.  This isn't a fitness competition, this is a team-based support community to remind you to be a little active each day and hopefully build your sense of community at BCC! 

Burke's Fitness Battle info session Monday, September 15 in the SBA Lounge 11am-1pm

Reach out to Michael Carnevale mcarnevale@berkshirecc.edu with any questions!
