Activities

Zumba

Cottage Grove Ravine Regional Park

10 - 11 a.m.

A Zumba® class takes the "work" out of workout, by mixing low-intensity and high-intensity moves for an interval-style, calorie-burning dance fitness party. Once the Latin and World rhythms take over, you'll see why Zumba® Fitness classes are often called exercise in disguise! 

Space is limited – Registration required - $10 per person.

Fitness Hike

Lake Elmo Park Reserve – Nordic Center Trailhead

10 a.m.

Plan for a beautiful hike along a 3 mile/60 minute trail and enjoy the physical and mental benefits of walking through nature. There will be a good variation of movement as we hike and some optional strength and balance challenges along the way. Wear layers, a good pair of trail shoes and join us on the trail!

No registration required.
