More than 300 guests came to the Alleghany Wellness Center’s one-year anniversary celebration on Saturday, said Director Joe Potts.

The event featured exercise demonstrations, blood screening, a Nautilus instructor, chair massages, tours of the facility and drinks and other refreshments.

“We had a small army of volunteers who helped give tours, handed out passes to the center, prepared the food and refreshments and took on other tasks,” said Potts. “We couldn’t have done it without them.” Potts commented that more than 40 chair massages were given that day. Also being offered that day were membership specials.
