The Lake Washington Optimist Club has added "healthy" to the mission statement for their Optimist Club: "By providing hope and a "healthy" positive vision, Optimists bring out the best in kids."
One way they are pursuing that goal is to partner with Bastyr University on the Apple Core Program. Take a look at how simple it is for your Optimist Club to adopt an anti-obesity program and to encourage childhood wellness in your community.
The Optimist Club participated in the program in October and learned how to help children - and adults - make healthy lifestyle choices with games and fun.
We love stories about your Optimist Club. Please tell us one and we'll add it to the website.
