SNAP Fitness is a new gym open 24 hours, 7 days a week and located at 2055 Baseline Rd. Gym owners, Bridget Kelley and Jim Busshart, own several other SNAP Fitness gyms in Western New York but have been looking to open another gym on Grand Island for awhile. After researching the area and looking at Grand Island’s demographics, they knew this would be a successful place to do business.The space was occupied and started renovations in September and the doors were open for their first day of business on December 12th. The fitness center is full of new equipment and offers many services. An athletic trainer is available by appointment and members can use the interactive www.mysnapfitness.com website for incentives and wellness programs to help you track your progress.
Discounts are offered to groups, businesses, students 18 years and older, Military, Boarder Patrol, and Fire and Police personnel. Family and individual memberships are available at a reasonable price. Free one week's trials are available.

Linda Feldman framing a stone relief.
Eddie's Art Shoppe, 2305 Grand Island Blvd., has been providing island residents with picture framing guidance since 1983. Linda Feldman worked for the previous owner for 25 years and purchased the business in the Spring of 2011. Linda has always been creative. Her dad was a carpenter and she started working with him at a young age. She is not afraid of power tools and said wood is a comfortable medium for her to work with. You can't imagine all the different ways to display your artwork, pictures and treasures. Stop in the store and Linda would be happy to show you her custom creations. Her favorite way to display/frame your memories are in three-dimensional framed boxes. Over the years the framing has included sports jerseys, flat screen TVs, wedding photos and invitations, military medals, children's artwork, very old locks of hair, mirrors, art and posters. You name it, it can be framed. The Grand Island Historical Society had Linda make a display box for hair jewelry donated to the society over the years. The store also provides custom matting. See website. Hours of operation are Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 10:00 am to 5:30 pm and Wednesday and Saturday from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm.
