As a probation officer, November Member
of the Month Brian Long finds that coming to Pearce is the time when he can
forget about dealing with the criminal and delinquent behavior of others. His
Pearce time allows him to burn off stress and maintain his fitness, critical if
he must make an arrest.
Brian keeps fit by running. You can
find him on a treadmill or a rowing machine in the Cardio Room; participating
in the Core group exercise class; or running half and full marathons. He has
also run in Pearce’s annual Run For the Health of It 5K race and coached a
Pearce youth soccer league. He does sit down from time to time to watch
Cardinal’s baseball.
Aside from fitness, Brian trusts
Pearce to provide exceptional care for his son in the Before and After School
Care and Summer Camp programs.
Given his profession, Brian believes
that it’s not about how hard you’re hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit
and keep moving forward.
“Become a
Foundation Member, and ensure that Pearce will be a place our community has for
future generations.” Brian Long
