LAKE FOREST, Ill. — January 20, 2023 — HealthFitness, a Trustmark company, and a leading provider of comprehensive fitness solutions; is pleased to announce that three of its client sites, Beaumont Health Club, Rochester Hills, MI; West Clermont HealthPlex, Cincinnati, OH; and the Wayne County Community College District's Curtis L.
