Saturday, January 7th the Monroe Athletic Club is hosting the 2017 Yogathon. This year's Yogathon is benefiting Pilots for Patients.
For those who aren't familiar with the idea of a Yogathon, think of a marathon. In a marathon, one runs all day, and in a Yogathon, one can take yoga classes all day. The Monroe Athletic Club offers different level classes starting at a beginner's yoga class and moving up to more advanced yoga levels.
Pilots for Patients is a nonprofit organization that enlists volunteer pilots to assist those in need of air transportation for medical purposes. The services that Pilots for Patients provides is completely free, through the donation of the time and aircrafts of the pilots.
The Yogathon will be held from 8:15 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and snacks will be provided by Daily Press. The minimum donation to participate in this event is 10 dollars.
