The event, which attracted approximately 50 people, also kicked off a free week of RAC service for members.

“It was our way of saying thank you to all of our current members and to meet some new faces as well,” said Tanna Radtke, marketing specialist for RAC.

Club members got a chance to sink Serious About Fitness trainer Chris Doran, RAC co-owner Ryan Neal, Boot Camp trainer Sgt. Mike Lawson and RAC manager Ryan Rourke in the dunk tank. To check out a video of the dunking fun, click here.
