The event will be capped by a red wine tasting, with a $20 donation for each participant.
On Monday, Feb. 23rd, a Dance of Hearts for 2- to 6-year-old girls will be held from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. in one of the club’s group fitness rooms. Organizing that occasion will be Shannon Venable, Five Seasons’ Director of Aquatics who has undergone open-heart surgery.
“This is a cause that is near and dear to my heart,” said Venable. “So many people are touched by heart disease in one way or another, and as a club we are dedicated to helping our members, as well as the entire community, in the fight against it.”
All of the events are open to members of the public.
