When Jess Moore opened Champ Camp Fitness and Training in Washougal in July, he hoped that the facility would become a “community development project,” providing opportunities to low-income youth through scholarship programs, holding fundraisers, sponsoring community events and establishing close working relationships with Washougal High School athletes.

The recent statewide shutdown of gymnasiums, caused by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, put those plans on hold for now, but Moore is still finding ways to give back to the community that he believes gave so much to him when he was younger.
