Though a lot of people look for any excuse they can to avoid working out, there were some frustrated Snap Fitness members who couldn't use the 24-hour downtown fitness center this weekend.
The business, which is in the Wichita Executive Centre at 125 N. Market, unexpectedly closed Saturday.
"Basically, we're in a disagreement with a couple of other owners," co-owner Paul Johnson says.
Johnson won't go into specifics, but he says he'll share more information today.
"It's all figured out," Johnson says of some possible changes in ownership that are coming. "It's just a matter of completing it.
"We should be back up and running shortly."
A second Snap Fitness is still on target to open in December at 3300 N. Rock Road under different ownership.
Southern style
There are often complaints that when new restaurants are announced, they're rarely on the south side of Wichita.
Micah Mack and his family are doing something about that.
They plan to open Mama's Kitchen by November at either Pawnee and Meridian or 31st South and Seneca.
"Basically, we're bringing Sunday dinner back to eating out," Mack says. "We feature all the traditional foods that only Mama or Grandmama could make. Things that most of the time we just don't get anymore."
That could be dishes such as pot roast or ham.
"We've adapted a lot of the old family traditions."
The Southern-style food will be served family style. There will be an emphasis on making the dishes as healthy as possible, too. Mack says 80 percent of the menu will have diabetic-friendly dishes.
He says there aren't a lot of sit-down restaurants where he's looking.
Initially, Mack says he'll start with only about 50 seats. The restaurant could expand later.
We'll let you know as soon as he makes a decision on a site.
Cheeky decision
Julie Craft's 4-month-old daughter, Maecy , is part of the inspiration for her new retail shop.
Sweet Cheeks, which is opening at 917 W. Douglas in Delano , will be a "mommy-baby boutique," Craft says.
"We're going to kind of go a little edgier, a little cheeky, so to speak."
Craft used to be the school nurse for Rainbows United . She was laid off in December.
She also has a couple of online businesses.
Craft can't always find what she wants for Maecy in Wichita, though, so she's hoping her shop will appeal to other mothers looking for one-of-a-kind items.
Sweet Cheeks is going into the former Blank Page space, which was an art gallery with a cabaret license.
Craft says she's doing extensive remodeling.
"We've had a lot of challenges with that."
She hopes to be open in time for Second Saturday (a promotional day of shopping in Delano and Old Town ) on Sept. 11. Craft says if she can't open by then, she expects to open by Oct. 1 at the latest.
