After noticing that there weren't many local options for fitness with childcare, let alone free workouts, the Bunnell resident started leading a Mommy and Me Fit Camp on Aug. 14. The free workout camps will run 9-10 a.m. every Monday, Wednesday and Friday through Sept. 8.

"It gives moms the chance to get out in the community to meet other moms with the same goals: to get fit and bond with their kids," Greenslade said.

Jennifer Graves brought her 1-year-old daughter Breelyn to the workout on Aug. 18. While lying on her back, Graves stretched her arms up, holding a smiling Breelyn.

Greenslade said that after the workout, she invites participants to walk around the lake at Town Center, 975 Central Ave., and find three things that they find beautiful. She hopes to provide a fun, healthy workout for both the mind and body through this camp.

Grandparents and fathers are welcome to attend, as well.
