 Hosted by the Mary Morgan Elementary Physical Education Program
Sunday, October 17, 2010

Check-in starts at 12:45 PM

To help the students of Mary Morgan Elementary School discover the importance of having a healthy heart, The Physical Education Program has organized this event. One of the main goals of our Physical Education Program is to promote a healthy lifestyle through a lifetime of fitness activities. This event allows us to spread this important message, not only, throughout our students of the Byron School District, but also, throughout the community. Money raised from this event will go toward the Heart Adventure Course. All students at Mary Morgan will be able to utilize this course during their time in Physical Education and gain a better understanding of the importance for having a healthy heart.
