INSPIRING HEALTHY KIDS AND FAMILIES
Healthy kids need places to play where the whole family can be active together. St. Luke's FitOne partners with schools around the region to make that happen by funding the construction of running and walking tracks at elementary schools. Their projects include programs that help schools and communities make the most of the tracks and provide a fun, accessible place to promote activity. Tracks are used for PE classes, recess walking programs, and as a community resource after school.
With these contributions, FitOne is helping children and families build a foundation for a lifetime of healthy habits, as they set goals for healthy living and work to achieve them.
Finish Festival
FitOne participants are encouraged to invite their friends and family to Ann Morrison Park to cheer them over the finish line, then stay and enjoy the family-friendly finish festival with snacks, great music and high fives!
