More Than 3 Million High School Students Signed Up for Planet Fitness’ ‘High School Summer Pass’ Program and Put Fitness First This Summer - Seite 2

“I absolutely love this program,” said Sarah O., an Ontario participant parent. “I’m so grateful my son [was] able to go and work out in a non-judgmental environment. He’s building strength and confidence. I see such a difference in his mental health. Thank you for offering this to our teens."

To further motivate high schoolers to prioritize fitness, all participants who signed up were encouraged to enter the Planet Fitness High School Summer Pass Contest³. Planet Fitness will be awarding 10 lucky teens in the U.S. and Canada with $10,000 individual academic scholarships ($100,000 total). Additionally, the top 10 schools on the leaderboard across U.S. and Canada in each tier will each receive $10,000. These scholarships can be used for academic or athletic activities or programs. Winners will be notified this month.
