(KWCH) &#8211; A new non-profit boxing gym in Derby is set to open to the community on Saturday between 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m., with a special open house event.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">The gym run by Brandon Ivy, aims to provide an affordable and accessible space for people of all ages. Membership for kids is set at $25, while adults can join for $50. First responders will be allowed to train for free.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Organizers said the facility will offer 24\/7 access through a keypad system, making it one of the few gyms in the area available around the clock.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">The gym is named in honor of Harper Justice Ivy, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kwch.com\/2024\/12\/07\/family-girl-killed-accident-derby-gas-station-giving-back-community-her-name\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.kwch.com\/2024\/12\/07\/family-girl-killed-accident-derby-gas-station-giving-back-community-her-name\/\">3-year-old who died in a vehicle fire at a QuikTrip<\/a> back in 2023.
