Kick Off Your Summer with the Passport to Active Living

Thursday, May 14, 2015

Do you want to be more active? Do you want your kids to have an active, healthy summer? Use the Weight of the Fox Valley's Passport to Active Living as the beginning of a new journey!

Join us at the upcoming Passport to Active Living Kickoff on Monday, June 1, 2015 from 11 a.m. to noon. We invite you, along with residents throughout the Fox Valley, to gather in the Town of Menasha's Fritse Park for a community walk across the Trestle Trail Bridge. RSVP today.

The Passport to Active Living encourages community members to get active by exploring our beautiful local parks and trails. The Passport challenge runs June 1st to September 30th, 2015. In order to take part in the challenge, you need to stamp your passport each time you are physically active - walking, jogging, running, biking, etc…you choose what's right for you. By logging at least 15 minutes three times a week for twelve weeks, you will become eligible for a mid-challenge prize (everyone gets one!) and a grand prize drawing!

If you cannot attend the Passport Kick Off, but still want a copy of the passport, contact Keren Rosenberg, Program Manager, while supplies last.

(Please Note: The Trestle Trail Bridge was selected as the kick-off site weeks before the tragedy on May 3rd. During the event, we will observe a moment of silence for the shooting victims. We believe now, more than ever, we should gather together at Fritse Park to kick-off this community-wide initiative.)

Let's kick off a healthy summer together! We hope to see you there!
