Some of you may be wondering how we became Pinacle with one N. Well...read on...ours is an interesting journey!

It all started one fine sunny day when Jonathon (a.k.a. Barney) went outside to help his dad in the barn for the first time. Barney hung onto his dad like a barnacle, and was henceforth known as Barnacle, which later shortened into Barney.

Fast Forward about 18 or 19 years...Barney, now a tool & die maker, came up with a new name for anything great. A perfect job at work was pin. A good time with his friends was pin. A good movie, ride on his bike or meal was pin.

So when Barney felt called to change careers, he decided to do something to help people change their lives...to heal, to grow, to love life, to accomplish their goals, to have fun, and to do his part to build a STRONGER Community, ONE Body at a TIME.  He paired the word he used to describe everything he loved, pin, with the latter part of his childhood nickname, acle, and voila! Pinacle Health & Fitness, The Ultimate Highpoint was born in Milverton!

For those of you who know Barney, or have heard him give seminars, you know that there is much more to that story. His is a story of perserverance, confidence, self development and more...but we'll leave it at that for now :)

Two years later and Pinacle Elmira was opened with the same amount of success! With another warm welcome from the community, we were so grateful to have two facilities up and running in such wonderful communities.

Now in 2010, the Pinacle Team is doing better than ever!  To all of our valued members, and our community: You have our commitment to provide a facility for you to become fit, healthy, and happy; To be accepted and welcomed no matter what your current fitness level is or what your goals may be.  Come on in and see what we have to offer!
