SummerActive 2005
|
Physical activity, healthy eating, sport
participation and living smoke-free are part of a healthy lifestyle. |
SummerActive
2004 resulted in 100% more participant registrations than in 2003. About
78,000 Canadians registered their physical activity on the SummerActive
web site between May 10th and the end of the campaign on June 19st. According
to many SummerActive leaders, these events attracted participation by
thousands more Canadians who did not register on the web site. Clearly
the campaign helped to encourage Canadians to make regular physical activity,
healthy eating and living smoke-free a part of daily living.
At last count, 298 SummerActive events provided myriad opportunities for Canadians to walk, roll, run, swim, cycle, dance, jump and skate their way to better health. Certainly, the campaign was successful in mobilizing schools, workplaces, sport or recreation clubs, health centres and other settings to create fun and stimulating environments for healthy living.
SummerActive
is a terrific way to enhance a broad range of physical activity, healthy
eating, sport participation and tobacco-free living initiatives. By linking
with the campaign, partner organizations benefited from SummerActive
resources, promotions and related activities. Leaders had access to helpful
leaders resources, including SummerActive public-service announcements
targeting specific populations, settings and age groups. Leaders and
physical activity organizations were encouraged to take full advantage
of SummerActive tools and to make use of them to support their local
events and programs.
