Anytime Fitness, in partnership with Comcast Spotlight in Seattle, is bringing the tour to Auburn from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday.

Two of the Seattle Seahawks’ Sea-gals are scheduled to be in attendance.

Anytime Fitness is located at 602 Auburn Way S. The event is free and open to the public.

“Since the event is centered around encouraging physical fitness and healthy eating habits for kids and families, we thought Anytime Fitness would be a perfect fit as a local sponsor and the best location for the tour’s Seattle visit,” said Karen Nordstrom of Comcast Spotlight in Seattle.
