Some sad news to start off with, and then a couple of announcements.

Apollo Beach Boot Camp is hosting Exercise for Emma, a fundraiser for 5-year-old Emma Lewis, daughter of the Rev. Charlie and Coco Lewis, to help with her mounting medical expenses. Emma was recently diagnosed with leukemia and will need to receive treatment over the next two to three years.
Charlie Lewis is the pastor of Christ the Community Church.

The fundraiser is a one-hour fitness boot camp scheduled for 8 a.m. Nov. 21 at the Resort & Club at Little Harbor. Registration is $5, and 100 percent of the proceeds will go to the Lewis family. Anyone 14 and older may participate. Participants need to bring a set of 5- or 8-pound hand weights, exercise mat and towel. Water will be provided. For information or to register, visit www.apollo beachbootcamp.com and click on the events page or contact Heather Brandt at (727) 480-3004 or heather@apollobeach bootcamp.com.
