Yogapalooza to kick off 'Thrilling Thursdays'
A free yoga class instructed by RedBloom will be open to the public on Thursday, June 15 as Yogapalooza is set to kick off Thrilling Thursdays.
The ten-week event, hosted by the city of Mount Pleasant, will be held every Thursday from 6-8 p.m. at Town Center with the exception of the Supersoaker Festivus event, which will be held on August 17 at Island Park.
This will be the second year that the city of Mount Pleasant hosts the weekly events, which began last year as a way to bring more attention to downtown Mount Pleasant, says Melinda Salchert, special events coordinator for Mount Pleasant's downtown development department.
"It's all about getting people out and doing things together," Salchert said. "It brings people of all different ages and cultures to have fun together. There really is a sense of community."
Thrilling Thursdays are sponsored in part by the Isabella Community Credit Union. RedBloom Yoga, GreenTree Cooperative Grocery and the upcoming local business Pure Vitality will co-host Yogapalooza. The event will function like a free public yoga class, with instructors from RedBloom available for assistance and advice.
