Sweat Fixx is one of the local businesses that has taken advantage of the Sign Improvement Program

Sweat Fixx, a boutique fitness studio specializing in low impact, high-intensity full body row and sculpting workouts at 383 Lowell Street at the Four Corners in Wakefield, is one of the local businesses that has taken advantage of the Sign Improvement Program, which offers financial assistance of up to $1,000 to eligible business property owners and commercial tenants to improve signage and lighting. The program is offered through a partnership between the Wakefield Lynnfield Chamber of Commerce, the Wakefield Main Streets Program and the Town of Wakefield.

The grant was awarded to owner and new Chamber member Elise Caira (second from right), by (from left) Wakefield Sign Compliance Officer Bob Sardella, Wakefield Main Streets Program Director Bob DiBella, and Wakefield Lynnfield Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Marianne Cohen.

The Sign Improvement Program is part of the ongoing efforts to help revitalize Wakefield’s downtown. To be eligible to participate in the program, applicants must meet established criteria. Complete information, including all eligibility requirements and guidelines, and applications can be obtained by emailing the committee at info@wakefieldlynnfieldchamber.org.
