Houston YMCA Group Taps Precor for All Fitness Needs

National Leader Signs Six-Year Agreement on Strength, Cardio and

Entertainment

HOUSTON–(EMWNews)–One of the nations largest YMCA associations,

the YMCA of Greater Houston, has signed a six-year agreement making

Precor the exclusive supplier for fitness center strength, cardio and

entertainment equipment.

With 38 locations in the Greater Houston area, the Houston YMCA is the

third largest association in the U.S. Last year, nearly 900,000 people

were served through value-based Y programs such as child development and

education, older youth and teen programming, health enhancement,

wellness, camping, sports and recreation, fellowship, community

development, refugee settlement and affordable housing. One-third of all

Houston YMCA members receive financial assistance.

Houston YMCA Clark Baker noted that Precor has been a strong supporter

of the associations mission of meeting the

needs of underserved inner-city families and communities.

Weve had the good

fortune to work with Precor for several years, and over time, theyve

come to understand and truly embrace our mission of serving the

community, said Clark Baker, Greater Houston

YMCA president and CEO. Certainly, the Precor

equipment helps us deliver a fitness experience that delights our

members, but beyond that, theyve added real

support to key initiatives that resonate with our mission to build

healthy spirit, mind and body for all.

The announcement of the Houston agreement closely follows similar

arrangements with leading YMCA associations in Kansas City and

Pittsburgh.
