You are also invited to join us for our free walking program at three community centers. Walking is one of the best ways to stay healthy! Pedometers are available for checkout so you can log your daily progress. We will help track your miles each week and award you with incentives when you reach the 100- and 200-mile markers. Walking has many benefits for your health, and we want to reward you for healthy behavior. We will also offer a monthly newsletter to keep you updated on upcoming events and other fitness programs during the months of our walking program. It will be held Monday through Friday, September 28 through December 18, from 8 to 10 a.m. at Kenny Anderson, Kuehn, and Morningside Community Centers.
We also offer weekday morning play groups, September 28 through December 18, from 10 a.m. to 12 noon. Play groups are specifically for kids and their caregivers. Gather your friends at our “house” to play and not get your house messy. Our play groups are open for kids from infant age to prekindergarten age. We will provide the equipment and toys. Parents/adults provide the supervision. Not intended for child care centers or in-home care providers. Play Groups are offered at Morningside Community Center on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, along with Kuehn Community Center on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
