According to Alyssa LaVergne, the Bay Athletic Club (BAC) will host a Sweat For a Cause event at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday at Bay Urban Fitness in Alpena. The event will support Mariah Seguin in her fight against breast cancer.

LaVergne said that Sequin has been a loyal member of BAC since 2015, participating in boot camps and classes.

“She’s always shown up with a smile and great attitude,” LaVergne said.

LaVergne stated that the class is for all levels and will be led by BAC instructors Trina Gray, Dorothy Pintar, her LaVergne herself. BAC instructor Amy Schultz will also lead a yoga class at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday at BAC in Alpena.

BAC’s goal is to show their support through movement and community. LaVergne said that BAC hopes that the funds raised will help alleviate some of Sequin’s financial burden and show her support.

According to LaVergne, both workouts are free to attend and donations of any amount are appreciated. Funds will go directly to Sequin and her family.
