| Introduction | GOAL GETTERS PROGRAM CREATED BY: DANESA BORGERDING |
| Interests | The idea for this program came to me about 2010 when my daughter had to write a paper on nutrition. I told her that I would go ask the gym teacher for some information and see what she had. After reading some of the material from her, I started asking myself and some others about maybe having a family bike ride, a family walk night, just something to get people moving. I then quit thinking about the idea because I had no way of how to even get something like this started. Well this past year, 2011, I had a girl come up to me in gym class and told me how her and her friend had walked a mile after school because they were wanting to lose some weight. Well that's when the light bulb went off in my head and I knew that I had to do something. So I had mentioned my idea to someone who told me to mention it to this other person and from there, that is how this whole program started. I had a bunch of wonderful people jump on board with me to create this awesome program for kids in grades 5th - 8th. Not only do they learn about nutrition, they also learn about how to stay active and set goals for themselves. |
