Genesys Athletic Club hosts "Shakin' it for a Cause"

(GENESEE COUNTY, MI) Genesys Athletic (GAC) is hosting a Ladies Night Out, Friday, July 10, beginning at 6:30 p.m., to raise funds for cancer patients at Genesys who need financial assistance.
"Shakin' it for a Cause" will feature one hour of dance exercise that includes Zumba, belly dancing, hula and Bhangra (high energy folk dancing); drinks and appetizers; a guest pass to GAC; a live auction for a private Zumba party; raffles for a variety of prizes; and a t-shirt for the first 200 women who sign up. Cost is $30 a person.

All proceeds go to Reunion with a Cause, an annual event held at Holly High School to raise money for Genesys cancer patients.

Child care services at GAC are open to those who need them at a cost of $3 a child per hour.
All of this money will go to Reunion with a Cause.

To register for "Shakin' it for a Cause," call Genesys Athletic Club at 810-606-7300.

Reunion with a Cause is an annual walk on the track of Holly High School. Sponsored by Genesys Health Foundation, this event includes an evening filled with family activities, a candle lighting ceremony to remember loved ones lost to cancer, music and refreshments. Last year, more than $53,000 was raised for Genesys cancer patients. This money was used to help cancer patients pay for medications, medical equipment, rental equipment such as wheelchairs, private pay aides, transportation to and from cancer treatments, and other special needs not covered by health insurance.

This year's Reunion with a Cause will take place Friday, Aug. 14. For more information on the fundraising walk at Holly High School, call the Genesys Health Foundation at 810-606-6020.
