Students get fit in after-school program

Offered every spring and fall, the program is free to participating schools and open to all grade levels, though the program’s materials are currently geared primarily toward the elementary school level. For their part, participating schools must provide the facility and a club leader to help oversee the program, while Goshen Health provides the rest of the club supplies, Bowers explained.

“Clubs are required to meet two times a week for a minimum of six weeks,” Bowers said of the particulars of the program. “We provide guidelines and tips to the school for running the club. The schools are able to customize the club to best meet their needs — day, time, how often, etc. — but they must track the number of kids in the club, the total number of miles run and results from student pre/post assessments.”
