Gold's Gym, the growing iconic fitness brand, has unveiled its newly renovated gym in the Hamilton Mill area, created in the image of its legendary original location, The Mecca in Venice Beach.
The 24,800-square-foot gym at 1250 Auburn Road in Dacula is owned by franchisee Koran Winters, who purchased it in 2023. Winters has plans to grow the brand's footprint in the Atlanta area, with one new gym opening planned per year over the next seven to eight years.
"Gold's Gym represents a growth opportunity with an iconic brand and leader in the fitness space," said Winters. "I've been a Gold's Gym fan since I was a member as a teen, and I love the direction the brand is taking with its new gyms. I look forward to bringing the Gold's legacy back to the Atlanta area in a big way."
The updated gym now has a legacy-inspired, all-new look and feel with brick walls and wooden accents, best-in-class gym80 equipment and a reproduction of The Mecca's famous green wall. [PR Newswire]
The new aquatic centre being built in High River got underway this week. Fencing has now been erected around the back west parking area of the Bob Snodgrass Recreation Complex.
Some equipment has also been brought in as they prepare to expand the current swimming pool area.
