We, the undersigned members of Planet Fitness, are reaching out to express our concerns regarding the High School Summer Pass program. While we acknowledge and support initiatives aimed at promoting youth fitness and mental well-being, the current implementation of this program has led to several challenges that impact the gym experience for regular members.

Key Concerns:

1. Overcrowding and Equipment Accessibility: The influx of teenagers during the summer months has resulted in overcrowded facilities, making it difficult for regular members to access equipment and complete workouts efficiently.
2. Lack of Gym Etiquette: Many participating teens are unfamiliar with standard gym etiquette, leading to issues such as prolonged occupancy of machines, failure to wipe down equipment after use, and disruptive socializing on the gym floor.
3. Disruptive Behavior: Instances of loud conversations, inappropriate use of equipment, and general disregard for the gym environment have been reported, creating an uncomfortable atmosphere for other patrons.
4. Safety Concerns: Unsupervised or improperly trained teens may misuse equipment, posing safety risks to themselves and others.

Our Requests: 
We respectfully urge Planet Fitness to reconsider the structure and implementation of the High School Summer Pass program. Potential solutions could include:

1. Designated hours for teen workouts to alleviate peak-time congestion.
2. Mandatory orientation sessions for participating teens to educate them on proper gym etiquette and equipment use.
3. Increased staff supervision during peak hours to ensure a respectful and safe environment for all members.

Our goal is not to exclude teens from accessing fitness resources but to ensure that the gym remains a welcoming and functional space for all members. We believe that with thoughtful adjustments, the High School Summer Pass program can achieve its objectives without compromising the experience of regular patrons.

Sign this petition to encourage Planet Fitness to take action and create a more balanced and respectful gym environment for everyone.
