Mayor Proclaims ‘Fit Family Challenge Summer’

It’s now official – straight from the desk of Mayor Jim Gray – this is the

FIT FAMILY CHALLENGE SUMMER.

Mayor Gray issued the Proclamation in May to mark Lexington Family Magazine’s 2016 Fit Family Challenge, which is co-sponsored by Coca-Cola, CVS Pharmacy and Charlotte Parent.

The Challenge is a community health initiative where participants can win prizes by tracking their healthy activities online.

Prizes includes Fitbits, memberships to the YMCA, Red River Gorge Zipline tickets and a weekend getaway for two to the Gaylord Opryland Hotel in Nashville.

Also, someone from the Bluegrass area will win the Grand Prize, a trip for four to Universal Studios in Orlando.

The Challenge runs May 1-June 25, and it’s not too late to register and start tracking your progress at www.MyFitFamilyChallenge.com.

Get started today and join the movement to create a healthier Bluegrass.

Below are the highlights of the Proclamation:

WHEREAS, Coca-Cola is joining Lexington Family Magazine and CVS Pharmacy in supporting Fit Family Challenge, a statewide healthy living program; and

WHEREAS, Coca-Cola challenges families across Kentucky to sign up through the website www.myfitfamilychallenge.com and log their activities and healthy living habits during the eight weeks; and

WHEREAS, Lexington Family Magazine plays a significant role in promoting healthy and happy families in Lexington.

Now, therefore, I, Jim Gray, Mayor of Lexington, in recognition of the importance of Lexington families and physical fitness, do hereby declare May 1-June 25, 2016:

FIT FAMILY CHALLENGE SUMMER IN LEXINGTON

Jim Gray, MAYOR
