We are turning down the lights and turning up the fun to make the Kroc Center’s water “glow” for the first Aqua Zumba® GLOW PARTY fundraising event! The Kroc Center’s first Aqua Zumba® Glow Party will be on Friday October 23, 2015 from 7:00-9:00pm in the Kroc Center’s Lap Pool. Participants ages 14 – 99 are encouraged to register and attend this fun event!
You don’t need to know how to swim to participate! Glow Party-goers feet will be flat on the pool floor and the water should be no higher than chest level. This is a wonderful opportunity for the Omaha Community to join in the fun at the Kroc Center and raise money for our Learn to Swim Programs!
All proceeds from the Zumba® Glow Party will benefit aquatic education such as swim lessons/scholarships, lifeguard training, and the swim team for the Omaha Kroc Center’s Aquatics Community!
Get ready to Get your GLOW on... Some glow items will be provided, but you are encouraged to get your best “glow” going by bringing your own festive glow decorations! The person who glows the most will win a Zumba® Prize donated by Instructor Amy Reihle, so come adorned with glow stick jewelry galore. But please ***NO GLOW BODY PAINT*** in the pool!
Tickets to attend the Glow Party Fundraiser are $15 if you register in advance or $20 the day of the event, October 23. Childcare will be available for $2 per child (ages 1-10) for the two hour event. To purchase tickets online visit http://bit.ly/1UXh3lo or purchase tickets in person at Omaha Kroc Center Welcome Desk!

The Wagner’s initially started coming to the Kroc Center because one of their daughter’s was participating in the Children’s Hospital HEROES program. Children’s Hospital and the Omaha Kroc Center developed a partnership and the Kroc Center hosts the fitness portion of the program twice-a-week. After having participated in the parent educa-tion sessions, the Wagner Family decided to use the time when their daughter was at the Kroc Center exercising with the program, for their own fitness training.
And then they kept coming back and branched out to find new inter-ests! Mrs. Wagner said, “its because of the variety of programs of-fered” that keeps them coming back. Shortly after joining their second daughter started taking Flamenco classes and going to the open arts
studio and both girls started taking Taekwondo together. Mom and Dad started working out on the Fitness Deck and Mom even started taking Yoga and the new POUND class! - “The Kroc is clean, the equipment is good, and most of all, the staff is friendly and helpful.”
At the Kroc Center we often hear how people visit us for one thing, perhaps Zumba® or Swim Lessons, but then discover that we offer so much more. How about you, do you have a Kroc Center “branching out” story? We’d love to hear it! Share your # Branching Out Story on the Kroc Center Facebook page or share on your social media pages and tag OmahaKroc. One story will be selected at random to win Kroc Merchandise!
