Who says cardio can’t be a little spooky?
The team and patrons at the Kettering Recreation Complex went all out for Trick or Treat, proving that festive attire is officially the ultimate workout gear!
From a witch with a crawling creepy hand and the Terminator (with Sarah Connor, of course) to a rockin’ '80s aerobic instructor, Cookie Monster, E.T. and Elliott, a cowgirl with her cow-dog and a jungle animal keeper alongside an adorable panda... our witch’s brew had plenty of fitness magic today.
Missed the spooky gains? Don't worry—you can join the fitness fun all year round! We’ve got 57 drop-in exercise classes on our current schedule to keep you moving.
Check out the full schedule and grab your spot at www.playkettering.org/group-exercise.

What a PAW-some time at Wag O Ween!
We had a howling good time on Saturday, Oct. 24, celebrating Halloween with our four-legged friends and their families! More than 50 pups showed off their creative costumes in our costume contest, while many more enjoyed tasty treats along our Tricks for Treats Trail and in our Trunk or Treat area.
New this year, Wag O Ween joined forces with Halloween Fun for Little Ones to bring even more spooktacular fun for the whole family!
A HUGE tail-wagging THANK YOU to our amazing volunteers and community partners, SICSA and The Humane Society of Greater Dayton, and our generous event sponsors: Pet Suites of Dayton, Hollywood Feed and Hounds Town Kettering. Your support helped make this event a real treat!

Fun Friday: Spooky Halloween Fitness Facts & Exercises!
Did you know that staying active during the spooky season has some surprising benefits? Here are a few fun fitness facts and themed moves that hopefully won’t scare you!
Spooky Halloween Exercises:
* Zombie Sprint Intervals: High-intensity interval training (HIIT) mimics the exact physiological response needed to escape a horror movie monster, boosting cardiovascular endurance faster than steady cardio!
* Heavy Pumpkin Loading: Carrying a large pumpkin works your core, grip strength, and upper back—acting as a functional, real-world kettlebell!
* Witch’s Cauldron Squats: Perform deep squats while pretending to stir a giant potion with an imaginary broomstick.
* Mummy Sit-Ups: Lie on your back with arms extended overhead, slowly rising up and lowering back down.
* Spider Planks: Hold a high plank position, bring your knee out toward your elbow, hold, and alternate sides.
Halloween Weekend Drop-In Classes at Kettering Recreation Complex:
Your goals don’t clock out on Friday—and neither should you! Stop by on Saturday, Oct. 31 for a scary good workout!
Saturday, Oct 31 Drop-In Classes:
- 7:45 a.m. – BFIT
- 9 a.m. – Weights
