TO THE EDITOR:
The Chapel Hill-Carrboro YMCA will hold a Zumba Dance Benefit on Friday, Jan. 27 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. This is a fantastic opportunity for folks in the community to experience the YMCA while supporting a grand cause with two hours of Zumba workout.
Not sure what it means to Zumba? Well, consider it an exhilarating, effective, easy-to-follow, Latin-inspired, calorie-burning dance fitness party that’s moving millions of people toward health.
At the YMCA’s Zumba Party, we’ll have a disc jockey and dance instructors on hand, as well as free refreshments and give-away prizes. For a $10 donation, you’ll be supporting your neighbors as all dance proceeds benefit the YMCA’s “We Build People” campaign. The campaign awards scholarships for YMCA membership and programs available to families in Orange and Chatham County.
At the YMCA, we trust lasting social change can only come about when we all work together. That’s why strengthening community is our cause. So, come on by at 6 p.m. on Jan. 27 to Zumba for an amazing cause. People of all ages are welcome so bring your neighbor, parent, teen, friend or foe. No advance registration is required.
