EVERY BODY ON THE MOVE: NEW WEB SITE AND FUN PROGRAMS

LAUNCH FRANKLIN COUNTY YOUTH INTO ACTION THIS SPRING

 

Farmington, MEundefined

 

EveryBody is on the move in Franklin County. The campaign that encourages kids and teens in Franklin County to get out, get moving, and try something new has just launched a website: EveryBodyOnTheMove.org.

 

EveryBodyOnTheMove.org encourages kids (and their parents) to find out about physical activities happening in Franklin County that are enjoyable and affordableundefinedin fact, most programs are free! Schools, businesses, and groups are welcome to share their own events and activities with the rest of the community, so that everyone knows where to go for healthy body-moving fun.

 

Newly added programs include:

 

·    Rangeley FitKidz! at the Rangeley Fitness Center on Mondays and Tuesdays from 2:30-4 p.m. Students in grades 5-12 of any fitness level will receive physical training, plus free membership for the duration of the program. Registrations are ongoing through June 2. Free.

·    Let’s Go Afterschool! at Stratton School on Mondays and Tuesdays from 2:30-4:30 p.m. This program is for students in grades 1-4. Registrations are ongoing through May 27. Cost is $1 per day.

·    Strong Spring Walking Program at Strong School on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2:30-4 p.m. during the month of May. Free.

 

Summer activities at Rangeley Fitness Center, Strong Elementary, and other locations will be coming soon.

 

“There are so many benefits for kids and teens to get moving, even if they’ve never tried any sports or physical activity before,” said Laurie Soucy, EveryBody’s programming director. “Our new website is a clearinghouse for all the fun things that are happening in Franklin County.”
