Tons of Fun Fitness Challenge

On August 5th, Governor & First Lady Deal announced the "Tons of Fun Fitness Challenge," in response to our growing obesity epidemic. The new program combines the great outdoors with healthy living and features a website: www.TonsofFun.org  ..where Georgians can create an online profile to plan activities, track calories burned and document weight lost.  The state's goal is for citizens to lose one million pounds.  There are even tips on how to get the family dog involved, and trainers and nutritionists are available to answer questions online. Joining is free!

Here is a link to the calendar of events (which is updated regularly):

We are very fortunate to have 8 State Parks to access along the Coast:

Crooked River State Park (Camden County), Fort King George Historic Site (McIntosh County), Fort McAllister Historic Park (Bryan County), Fort Morris Historic Site (Liberty County), Hofwyl-Broadfield Plantation Historic Site (Glynn County), Sapelo Island Reserve & Reynolds Mansion (McIntosh County), Skidaway Island State Park (Chatham County) and Wormsloe Historic Site (Chatham County).

Get out. Get dirty. Get fit!
