Mini Spin-A-Thon Event Report

What: 90 minute Spin-a-Thon

Where: Spa at Glenpointe, Teaneck, NJ

Time: 7:30am (Yikes!!!)


21 spinners broke their beauty sleep on a Sunday, July 12th to support Shoe4Africa's school building project. The event went off without a hitch and what made it all the better was riding for a remarkable cause. 5 people walked away winners of great prizes like a $75 gift certificate to On Track Sporting Goods store and a private Spin or Zumba class for the winner and 20 of their friends at The Spa. Additional donations were received on and after event day, bringing our fundraising meter to $490. This was the perfect start to our fundraising campaign.


In the words of Instructor Sam: riiiiiiiiiiiiide!















F.L.O. Humanity would like to thank:

Spin Instructors Sue and Sam for delivering a challenging but exceptionally fun and entertaining class, as always. We all earned extra calorie points that day!

The Spa At Glenpointe and their staff: Lateefah, Shari, Mindy and Marie
