Twisty Sisters holds holiday toy benefit for kids in need
Twisty Sisters Fitness will hold a Zumba Toy Drive Friday, Dec. 9 to benefit underprivileged children in Polk and Henderson counties.
Special Zumba classes will be offered from 5:30-8:30 p.m. for the toy drive. There will be no charge for the classes, but participants can bring a $10 donation or a new, unwrapped toy of the same value to participate in the class. There will also be light refreshments and door prizes.
Twisty Sisters’ owner Tonya Lindsey, former sergeant with the Polk County Sheriff’s Office and former Saluda Police Chief, said since she is no longer involved in law enforcement she misses being a part of helping area children during the holidays.
“I’m helping people’s bodies and minds, but not helping the community like I used to,” Lindsey said.
Local Toy Run director Barry Gee will handle delivery of the toys donated through the event on Friday.
All proceeds will be distributed to children in need in Polk and Henderson counties.
Zumba instructors from both counties will participate in Friday’s classes.
Twisty Sisters Fitness is held at the Upward Community Center, located at 5749 Howard Gap Road, Flat Rock.
