I just moved from downtown Seattle to Kirkland with my wife and 7 week old daughter. Last week I went into the 24 Hour Fitness at [size="-1"]529 Parkplace Ctr
Kirkland, WA 98033, to get a membership setup. While I was filling out paperwork the club manager, Noah Gross, approached me and asked if I was carrying a Ruger. I told him it was a Baby Eagle 45 ACP from Magnum Research and asked if he carried or shot. He said he didn't carry but would like to do some shooting as he hadn't been to a range in a while. We talked for a few minutes about guns in general then he gave me a personal tour of the whole facility. During my tour we were interupted by another employee with a question for Noah. At this time I was approached by none-other-than the Northwest District Manager, Kevin Long. He introduced himself and appologized for the interuption, but shortly Noah was free to continue my tour. After getting a very thorough look at the gym, Noah and I headed over to his desk to complete the registration process. While chatting with him and going over details Kevin came up to us for a minute only to reguest that if I am carrying my "piece" into the gym that I have it with me at all times either in its holster or in a fannypack so it doesn't get stolen out of a locker as a few customers in the region have reported having firearms stolen from their lockers while using the gym. Both were very OC friendly and coming from the district manager it made me pretty happy. Add 24 Hour Fitness to the ProGun list!
