If you’ve never been to the Valley of the Sun JCC before, Oct. 9 will be a great day to discover what “The J” is all about. The J will host its big, annual FitnessFest fundraising event on Sunday, Oct. 9, from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. where members and non-members will get to enjoy a fun-filled day of fitness while supporting a wonderful cause.

The goal of FitnessFest is to raise money for The J and breast cancer research. 20% of all proceeds will be donated to the Virginia G. Piper Cancer Center.

There will be fitness activities for all ages and fitness levels plus a “Fittest Member Challenge” - a timed strength competition with a prize at the end for the winner. There will also be a free tailgate and jumbo-sized football game viewing with complimentary game day fixings!

Cost to participate is a $25 minimum donation. All additional activities are $20 each. Check out the full schedule at vosjcc.org/fitnessfest

Everyone is welcome at The J - all ages, faiths, and abilities. The J is located at 12701 N. Scottsdale Road, Scottsdale. For more information, call (480) 483-7121 or visit http://www.vosjcc.org
