Summer is the time for kids to get up, get out, and grow. But for some kids, exposure to activities that stimulate the body and mind ends with the school year. That’s why the YMCA created Healthy Kids Day. This is our national initiative to improve the health and well-being of children.
This year’s Healthy Kids Day will take place on Main Street in front of Franklin County’s Y and will be packed with fun activities for the kids, live entertainment, prizes, and more to encourage kids to stay active during the summer months. Bring your family and friends to Healthy Kids Day at the Y and celebrate all the ways the Y helps build healthy, resilient kids.
Here a some of the activities you can expect on Healthy Kids Day:
Tumbling Tigers Gymnastics Team Demo
Style FX Hip Hop Dancing Demo website
Bernardston Cheer Team Demo
Strings for Kids Musical Performance website
Inflatable Obstacle Course & Gaga Ball
