The final Fitness Friday of the summer will be held Aug. 22, and organizers are changing things up by offering a yoga program.

Todd Gulizia will be leading the class, and beginners are encouraged to attend.

“Don’t be intimidated,” said Anna Kirshenbaum, public relations events coordinator. “This event is a fun and easy way to learn more about yoga — and for you experts, a chance to connect with co-workers and enjoy an outdoor workout.”

All Fitness Friday events are free for employees and students; all members of the clinical enterprise community are encouraged to attend.

Please RSVP if you are able to attend, as space is limited.

Please bring a yoga mat (or towel) and water to class.

UNMC women’s bowling league seeking teams

A group of UNMC and The Nebraska Medical Center employees are sending out a call for women to join a Wednesday night women’s bowling league, “Tweeters,” at Mockingbird Lanes, on 96th and L streets.

The league, which has existed for more than 25 years, is a handicap, non-competitive league. Currently there are five teams in the league, with space for five more.

Uniforms are not required. Some teams wear look-alike T-shirts, often with a medical center theme.

The teams are made up of four bowlers. The league begins Aug. 20 and runs through mid-April.

For more information, contact the league secretary, Bev Gray, at 402-630-4301.
