ChapCare and the 2016 WNBA Champion Los Angeles Sparks hold health clinic in South El Monte, CA
Students of Clifton Middle School danced, shot basketballs and more with the WNBA Champion Sparks Street Team and Sparky the Dog
The Los Angeles Sparks and ChapCare would like to thank Miramonte Elementary for hosting the #WeAreStrong School Assembly on November 8th, 2016. Fresh off a 2016 WNBA Championship, the Sparks Street Team and Sparky the Dog educated students on how to get healthy through diet and exercise.
Students participated in a number of activities from dance-offs with Sparky and the Sparks Crew to basketball competitions. The students were rewarded with Sparks autographs, backpacks and other memorabilia.
The Sparks explained to students the importance of pairing exercising regularly with eating healthy. They demonstrated a number of easy exercises such as jumping jacks to encourage students to stay active. Students were given activity booklets for further information on healthy eating tips and The Food Pyramid.
