Outdoor Activities Are Good For Your Health
If your idea of going out is grabbing a cup of coffee or two with your friends, or hitting the bars for an all-night escapade, then you seriously have to reconsider the healthiness of your outdoor activities. The outside world is great – it gives you fresh air, beautiful views, and lots of opportunities for physical activity.



Teach Your Child To Fish
Taking your child on an outing, such as fishing, not only creates a bond between child and parent, but it also benefits the health and well being of children. In today’s society, with more video and technology related games and computers, children are spending more and more time indoors on the couch in front of the TV or staring at a handheld video game system. This only leads to unhealthy habits, overweight problems, loss of exercise and appreciation for the vast environmental encounters they would experience out of the house.

This year, it is made possible by local downtown business women and associates.
