Adam Clarke, ACSM CPT (at left) presents a check to Dave Gonyea, director of athletics at Central Maine Community College (CMCC) to help support the athletic programs at the college. Clark also presented a check to support the Culinary Arts program at CMCC. The funds were raised during last fall’s Lake Auburn Marathon, sponsored by Moving ME Forward, a local non-profit whose mission is to “mentor, inspire and grow opportunities for individuals to cultivate change in health and fitness in our communities.” Moving ME Forward is also a major partner of the College in the Physical Fitness Specialist program and the Fitness Center. The manager of the Mustang Fitness Center at CMCC, Clarke was one of the first graduates of the Physical Fitness program and now mentors new students in the program.
