Today, we find ourselves in the midst of an important and unprecedented challenge brought on by the COVID-19 Pandemic. Despite the unknown road ahead, the crisis has made it clear that parks, public spaces, and wellness practices are as important now as they have ever been in our history. Getting outdoors in the sunshine for exercise and building cities for people are two emerging trends that are central to this partnership opportunity. As we work to collectively regain our strength and keep our immune systems strong, we know that the National Fitness Campaign can play a vital role in anchoring community wellness practices and positive initiatives for our community.

Here’s a short 2-minute video that will give you a brief overview of what the project is all about:
