Everybody here has been getting inspired. Angele Jetty is in shock.

When BodyWorks Fitness & Wellness Centre started its annual food drive a few years ago, she had no idea it would become what it has.

"(The food has) actually taken up a whole section of the gym," said Jetty, the operations manager at BodyWorks Fitness, in the Rainbow Centre.

"We've got everything from cases of chips to ... cases of cereal, big things of peanut butter. We've got everything here. "We've probably filled up 15 big bins." This is the third year BodyWorks Fitness has done the food drive, and also the year that has been the most successful.

The centre offered a month of free gym use in exchange for bringing in 40 items of food. The response to the drive, which wrapped up Tuesday, December 21, has been inspiring, Jetty said.

"It's great. I love it. Everybody here has been getting inspired, wanting to bring in more. Even some of the girls in the other stores have been collecting bags (of food) and bringing them here."

They've even had members make cash donations without asking they be used for gym credits.

"We've had members start to come in and ... give $5, $10, $15, and I would go over and buy the food," Jetty said.

The drive collected more than 3,500 food items, which will benefit the Edgar Burton Food Drive.
