The spring and summer months are always busy here in Pullman and this year is certainly no exception. As we move forward in 2012, there are a couple programs we would like to highlight within the brochure.
"Let's Move" Pullman! Let's Move! is a comprehensive initiative dedicated to solving the challenge of childhood obesity within a generation, so that children born today will grow up healthier and able to pursue their dreams. National statistics have shown that nearly one-third of America's children are overweight or obese. Obesity in America has grown from a personal health issue to a national epidemic, and we must take action at the local level.
We ask everyone to join Mayor Glenn Johnson, Pullman Parks & Recreation, and other various organizations within Pullman as we combine resources in an effort to improve physical fitness and reduce obesity. Pullman will officially kick-off our "Let's Move" campaign at Family Fair on Saturday, April 21st from 10:00am-2:00pm at Lincoln Middle School. Stop by our table and learn more about this initiative and some of the programs and activities that will be taking place in Pullman in the upcoming months to address this growing health epidemic.
Second is the National Bike Month Challenge! May is National Bike Month, so the best way to celebrate is to get on a bike: ride to work, ride to school, ride to the grocery store, or just ride for the sheer joy of being outside.
This event is fun, healthy, inexpensive, and participation is simple. Just register with Pullman Parks & Recreation before April 30th and receive your calendar to track your miles. Throughout the month, simply log the miles you ride and turn in your completed calendar by Friday, June 8th to be eligible for prizes and other random drawings!
If we still don't have your attention, please keep reading through the brochure in search of your favorite activity. As always, thank you for your continued support of Pullman Parks & Recreation. Have a safe summer and we look forward to seeing everyone in one of our many programs.
