9/17 Fit Kids Mileage Club ~ Before School Fitness Program - Grades K-6

Mondays & Wednesdays 7:25 - 7:55 a.m.

The Fit Kids-Step Ahead-Mileage Club is a before school program that is committed to encouraging physical fitness. Students will participate in power walking, jogging, running and other fitness activities that will get their bodies moving and brains wired for learning! As the students accumulate their mileage they will be rewarded with shirts, toe tokens, certificates, pencils, wristbands, cups, and water bottles. The more they move the more prizes they will earn. Monday, September 17 will be our first Fit Kids day of the new school year!

The Fit Kids-Step Ahead-Mileage Club will be offered on Mondays and Wednesdays in the North Gym from 7:25-7:55 a.m. by the MAES PE staff. Students should be dressed for physical activity, wearing tennis shoes and appropriate clothing as most activities will be held outdoors. In the event of bad weather, we will remain in the North Gym. Students will be dismissed at 7:55 to follow their regular breakfast routine. The Fit Kids-Step Ahead-Mileage Club is free for all students. The Fit Kids-Step Ahead program is offered through SHIP grant funding and support from Stevens Community Medical Center. Families are welcome and encouraged to join in the fun!
