It’s Fun to be Fit

It’s Fun To Be Fit
Join Us On Saturday, September 24th For Family Health And Fitness Day

Children who get regular exercise are more likely to be healthy and less likely to be overweight. Unfortunately, our kids today are not getting enough physical activity, and the results are serious. Childhood obesity has more than tripled from 1980 to 2008. One in three children is now overweight or obese, which can cause a lifetime of medical issues, from an increased risk of diabetes to high blood pressure and heart disease.

On Saturday, September 24th, you can make a big difference in your children’s lives. Our hospital is proud to sponsor a Family Health and Fitness Day. Come out and enjoy a fun-filled day that will include walk/runs, blood pressure and other screenings, educational workshops and low-key competitive events for family members. Find out more about the many community resources that are available to inspire your family to become more physically active. This is your opportunity not only to share a day with your family but also to get your kids going on the right track to a healthier life. Time: 00:00 a.m., Location:___________
