What is PowerUp?

The question of the hour....What is PowerUp?

Have your kids come home with PowerUp prizes? Talking about the PowerUp School Challenge? Or asking you how they can eat more fruits and veggies?

If so, than we have done our job! 
PowerUp is a long-term health initiative sponsored by Lakeview Health, and here to help your family eat better, move more and have fun while doing it! 

PowerUp is out and about in the community 24/7!

One of our bigger series of events of the year was our PowerUp School Challenges where we partnerered with Radio Disney to go into local elementary schools and get kids excited to eat better and move more (see photo!)

We also love to partake in community events! A few past events we have attended include; Lakeview Health's Free Veggie Giveaways, Nite to Unite, Jon Francis PowerUp Fun Run, Stillwater Junior High Health Resource Fair, Kowalski's Boo Bash and many many more! 

As a community resource, we also provide open gyms and cooking classes for families in the communities, see our event calendar and sign up today! http://www.powerup4kids.org/Events/?id=457&sid=4)
