NATCHEZ — For those looking to kick start a new year full of fitness, the coming weekend offers an option.

But if you’d rather relax away the holiday spirit, a calm weekend awaits.

The Natchez Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta is sponsoring a free Zumba fitness class from 9 to 11 a.m. Saturday at the Natchez Mall.

The civic sorority is hoping a good workout will promote healthy living in the new year.

The class will be in the Natchez Mall center court and the public is welcome to attend. For more details about Zumba fitness and Saturday’s class, contact Yokena Anderson at 601-442-0435 or yokenaanderson@bellsouth.net.

At 3 p.m. Sunday, Jefferson Street United Methodist Church invites the public to join them for a concert celebrating the restoration of its 1920s organ. The organ will debut earlier in the day during services.

Music will be presented by organists in the community: Jeanie Lanneau, Dr. Patrick Doherty and Vincent Bache CSJ.

A reception will follow the program in the Christian Life Center at Jefferson Street under the direction of Margaret Brown and a team of hostesses.
