The students at Oak Grove Lower Elementary in Mississippi are celebrating a new playground.
Oak Grove Lower is one of 60 schools in Mississippi to receive a Project Fit America grant this year. The grant is valued at $26,000 and funded by the Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Mississippi Foundation. It's goal is to promote health and wellness in public schools through providing new playground equipment.
This is a pretty cool thing they have going on in Mississippi. The kids get new playground equipment to have fun with and parents and teachers get to know their kids are outside having fun and staying fit. I wish more school or states would try and add programs like this one.
It's happening everywhere down here Mike. Check this out :http://www.cdispatch.com/news/article.asp?aid=2526
ReplyDeleteThis goes way beyond project fit.
