Zumbathon for Breast Cancer Awareness Raises $$$

Once each month fitness instructor Jennifer Edwins conducts a (that's Zumba plus marathon) in the gym of the to benefit a charity. This month's session was last night and helped Breast Cancer Awareness, a particularly timely choice considering October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

All told, about 70 exercisers attended on Friday and raised over $400 for the cause. Getting fit while raising money for a good cause, that's a win-win.

Next month's Zumbathon will benefit the chosen charity of the Mauldin High School student body--the Building Dreams Mentoring Program. Check Mauldin Patch for details.
