The Kids Heart Challenge promotes the value of physical activity to our students while showing them they can contribute to the community's welfare. This is a time when the students can establish a foundation for movement skills. These are also the years when positive learning experiences can help establish a positive attitude and appreciation for participating in regular, daily physical activity for life.
The Kids Heart Challenge helps fund research and educational programs that impact our community -- an important reason to participate. But the best reason of all to join this event is that kids love it!
