Zumbathon for Breast Cancer Awareness at YMCA

As countless organizations hold events for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the South Brunswick Family YMCA will do their part on Saturday with a Zumbathon event to raise money for the American Cancer Society.

"We're going to have our regular instructors and two guest instructors coming out and will introduce a new form of Zumba," said YMCA Group Exercise Coordinator Kim Zsamba. "We'll also have many vendors coming out like Mary Kay, and will also have cupcakes and baked goods for sale. We're trying to raise as much money as possible for a good cause, which is something our members like to do."

The event will be held on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. with three straight hours of non-stop Zumba. There will also be numerous prizes and giveaways. Tickets cost $15 in advance or $20 at the door. 

The Y is also partnering with the American Cancer Society for the 2012 Making Strides Against Cancer walk on Oct. 28 in Edison. For anyone who can't make it to the Zumbathon, but still wishes to donate click here.

"Our whole mission is to bring members of our community together to work for a good cause," Zsamba said.

The Zumbathon will be held on Saturday at the YMCA, located at 329 Culver Road in Monmouth Junction. For more information contact Kim Zsamba at 732-329-1150 ext. 212 or via email at kim@southbrunswickymca.org.
