Workout For St. Jude Children's Research Hospital - Saturday, May 17th


Join me this Saturday, May 17th for a fun and challenging group workout to benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.



Because of treatments invented at St. Jude, the overall childhood cancer survival rate has increased from 20%, when it opened in 1962, to more than 80% today.


As opposed to some other researchers, the team at St. Jude freely shares their medical breakthroughs. Every child saved at St. Jude allows doctors and scientists throughout the world to use that knowledge to save thousands more children.

 

Our workout will begin at 9 AM and last approximately 45 minutes, including warmup and cooldown. Please spread the word among your co-workers, neighbors, friends, and family. 

Requested donation is $20 or $20 or more in sponsor donations. If you can't exercise with us, please consider sponsoring a participant.

All fitness levels are invited. Exercises will be adapted or substituted, as necessary. Anyone 12 and older is welcome to join us.

It really helps if I have an idea of how many people to expect so, if possible, please let me know ahead of time that you’re coming. Then again, if you decide last minute, just come on down. Raising as much money as possible is obviously the goal.

To register or if you have any questions, please call Mickey at (717) 509-7777.

All proceeds benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, where no child is ever turned away due to parental inability to pay and no family is billed for services not paid by insurance.

Space is limited but if we get enough interest, I’ll hold two sessions - one at 9:00 AM and one at 10:00 AM.


Donation is $20 or $20 or more in sponsor donations. I have sponsor sheets here at the gym if you need one.  If you can’t join us, please consider making a donation.


It really helps if I have an idea of how many people will be attending so if you could let me know be coming  that would be very helpful.  However, if you decide last minute that’s great, too. Call me at 717-509-7777. Raising as much money as possible is obviously the goal.    


The workout will last approximately 45 minutes, including warmup and cooldown.

Let Me Help You Raise Money For Your Favorite Charity Or Non-Profit - FREE


Tired of the same old boring fundraisers?


I can help!  



I run an indoor charity boot camp every Saturday morning at 9:00 A.M.  All you need to do is reserve a date and start inviting people.

The workouts last approximately 45 minutes and include a warmup and a cooldown. 

Workouts involve primarily body weight and dumbbell exercises. All fitness levels are invited. Anyone, 12 and over, is welcome to participate.  (Kids must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.)

Exercises will be adapted or substituted, as necessary, so those who aren’t in great shape shouldn’t be afraid to join in.   

Each participant can pay a set amount and/or you can encourage them get sponsors. 100% of the money donated or raised by your participants goes to your charity. I donate my time, the equipment, and use of the facility- there is absolutely no charge to you or the organization.

Hang out with friends, have some fun, get some exercise and raise money for a worthy cause.  What better way to spend 45 minutes on a Saturday morning?

Call me today at (717) 509-7777 for all the details and to reserve your date.

Reminder: Weekend Benefit For St. Jude Children's Research Hospital - Feb. 16th & 17th

Yes, he's in there. ^
My nephew, Matt, is heavily involved in raising money for sick kids through Penn State's THON, the largest student-run philanthropy in the world. For the last 2 years, on the same weekend, I’ve held a Workout for St. Jude at Body & Soul to also help seriously ill kids. This year is no different.



Unfortunately, Body & Soul can't hold that many so reserve your spot. 

GROUP WORKOUT - SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 16th 
9:00 AM AND 10:00 AM

Mark your calendar and join me for a fun and challenging group workout session.

I now have enough sign-ups to have two sessions - one at 9:00 AM and one at 10:00 AM. Thanks! And, there's still room to bring a friend along.

Body & Soul members and friends have raised almost $10,700 for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital since 2005. Not Exactly the $89+ million that PSU students have raised for THON but we do pretty well for a small gym. :-)


Donation is $20 or $20 or more in sponsor donations. Sponsor sheets are available at Body & Soul Fitness Studio.

If you can't work out with us, please consider being a sponsor.

The workout will last approximately 45 minutes, including warmup and cooldown.



All fitness levels are invited. Exercises will be adapted or substituted, as necessary. Anyone 12 and older is welcome to participate.






HULA HOOP CONTEST - SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 17th 
10:30 AM AND 11:00 AM

How long can you keep that hoop spinning? Put your core hooping skills to the test, have some fun, and support the good work at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Let's add to the Body & Soul donation this year by having some fun with hoops!

We'll be holding two contests. The first begins at 10:30 AM, and the second at 11:00 AM. The prize for each contest is a brand new, sparkly, handmade fitness hoop, valued at $35-$40! Contestants will have their hooping endurance challenged with a series of different moves. The last hooper spinning wins!

Cost to enter each contest is $10. Hoops will be provided for use during the contest - no need to bring your own - but you can if you have a favorite.


Space is limited for both the group workout and the hooping contests so, if possible, please let us know you'll be attending. Call Mickey at (717) 509-7777 to register or for more information. However, if you decide last minute that’s fine, too. Raising as much money as possible is obviously the goal!



BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE!

Chair massage will be available on both Saturday and Sunday. Tarot readings and reiki will be offered on Sunday. You can take advantage of everything this weekend for a minimum donation of $35 (or donate just for the activities you're interested in).

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call me.

Fall Fitness Frenzy to Benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital

Since Body & Soul is a small fitness center, I've chosen to support one primary charity and raise money for it throughout the year. That charity is St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, where no child is ever turned away due to parental inability to pay and no family is billed for services not paid by insurance.

Oct. 9, 2000 is the day I opened Body & Soul Fitness Studio. Besides what we do all year round, last year near my anniversary, I started doing a weekend of activities to raise money for St. Jude. This year, thanks to the generosity of the instructors below, I'm able to offer even more classes.
 
If you can't join us, please consider sponsoring someone else or making a donation. Please spread the word to your friends, family and co-workers.
