Our Story
Count Me In began as EEK Fitness—standing for Exceptionally Excited Kids—founded in 2005 by two mothers seeking extracurricular activities for their children with special needs. What started as a small initiative for kids has grown into a thriving community that welcomes individuals of all ages.Over the years, our programs have expanded to include a variety of sports, fitness classes, and social events, all designed to empower participants while fostering a sense of belonging. At Count Me In, we believe that everyone deserves the chance to be active, have fun, and be part of a community that supports and celebrates them.
