Zumba-thon for Haiti planned for this Saturday


The Resort at Glade Springs is holding a Zumba-Thon Saturday to raise money for the victims of the earthquake that devastated areas of Haiti last month.

Zumba is a high energy fitness program that fuses hypnotic Latin rhythms and easy-to-follow moves in a unique workout.

The routines feature interval training sessions where fast and slow rhythms and resistance training are combined to tone and sculpt the body while burning fat.

The Zumba-Thon will take place from 10 a.m. to noon in the Glade Room at Glade Springs.

Each participant will pay $20 to participate, and also is asked to obtain sponsors who can agree to donate $5 for every 30 minutes a participant Zumbas.

For more information, call Rebecca Blaine at 304-573-3693 or e-mail rblaine@gladesprings.com
