‘Boogie for Boobies’ at SJ gym
Join a South Jersey gym for a great workout and help raise money for breast cancer with their "Boogie for Boobies" campaign.
Shake it to help shake breast cancer.
That's what Anytime Fitness in Sicklerville, N.J. is encouraging people to do tomorrow, Sunday Oct. 19 for their third annual "Boogie for Boobies" fundraiser benefiting the Susan G. Komen Foundation.
"You're helping raise money for breast cancer while getting a fun workout in. What could be better?" owner Anthony Jones said.
"Boogie for Boobies" is the brainchild of local fitness duo Beth Pullaro and Lisa Pennisi who specialize in Zumba Fitness classes. The women joined forces in 2012 to form what they call the "Swag Team."
"Each event got so much bigger, with so many more participants, we had to move it outside to the parking lot," Pennisi said.
Last April, the trio put together another event, "Boogie for Austim" which raised over $1,500 for Autism Speaks.
Joining the cause Sunday will be other local fitness instructors each offering their own niche. In total there will be over 42 small business vendors who have generously made donations to participate in the event. The event will feature a DJ, raffle prizes and of course a good sweat.
Anytime Fitness Sicklerville is located in the Shoppes at Cross Keys, 611 Cross Keys Road, Sicklerville, NJ 08081. Doors open at 12pm for shopping and raffles, and the fun starts at 1pm.
For more information, contact Lisa Pennisi at (856) 885-6586. Tickets are available at Anytime Fitness Sicklerville and online at boogie3.eventbrite.com.
