Dear Friends,
Healthy Strides is back again for its third year. Healthy Strides is a community initiative that gives the residents of the
Ken-Ton community an opportunity to improve their health -- and we need your help!
Last year, Healthy Strides providers organized and ran seventy-four different programs offered by Kenmore Mercy Hospital,
Town of Tonawanda Department of Youth, Parks and Recreation, Roswell Park Hospital, and many other churches and
organizations. Programs included walking and exercise groups, healthy cooking classes, dance classes, smoking
cessation workshop, coping with diabetes, back care, meditation and stress reduction, and many more. Local restaurants
participated by offering healthy choices on their menus. More than 500 people participated, and more than 250 completed
at least 12 activities in the six-week period and became eligible to win prizes. This year we want to expand those numbers!!!
And with your help, we can!
We are proud to announce that this year Univera Healthcare will be a major sponsor of our Healthy Strides activities. Their
commitment to the prevention of chronic health concerns such as heart disease, diabetes, obesity, cancer and stroke by
encouraging people to live a more healthy and active lifestyle will help make this the most successful year yet. To
accomplish our goals we need your help!
We are inviting you or your organization to participate by offering a program that will run during the six week period from May
4-June 12, 2009. Your program can be available one or more times for six weeks or just a single event, as long as it falls
within the time frame indicated. Programs can take place at your facility if you are located in Ken-Ton, or we would be happy
to host your program at one of the many locations of our sponsoring organizations. The program you offer can include
anything that helps people improve their health physically, mentally, emotionally, or spiritually, and can focus on any age
group. You can offer programs with or without a fee. And you don't have to invent something new. If you already plan to offer
a program in our time period, make it part of Healthy Strides and let us help you find participants.
Healthy Strides will host a booth at the Ken-Ton Showcase to be held on May 2-3, 2009 at the Lincoln Arena where
more than 6,000 people are expected to attend. At this great community event, we hope to inform people of the many
programs available to them and urge them to sign up for a Healthy Strides program. Program providers can advertise for
participants on their own as well as be included in the program guide. The program guide will be available prior to the May
4th start date.
Any program providers that would like to put on a 20-30 minute demonstration or workshop during the Showcase are
urged to do so. The casino area inside the arena will be available to us as well as the Showcase stage that is outside.
Make a note of your wish to participate on the Program Provider Form below and we will contact you for the details.
Healthy Strides will conclude with a Commitment Celebration from 10AM to 12 Noon on Saturday, June 13th, also at the
Lincoln Arena. This festive event will feature games, music, a bounce house, free healthy snacks, and prize drawings
rewarding those attendees who signed up and completed at least 12 activities over the six-week time period.
Providing a program is a great way for your group to fulfill its mission and connect to new people! However, time is of the
essence! We need to get the general details of what you will offer by March 15, 2009 so that we can include it in our
program guide.
Be sure to visit www.healthystrides.org for more information about our mission to improve the health and fitness of our
community. You can also access the registration form on the website. Thank you for your help as you empower the people
of Ken-Ton to make Healthy Strides!!!
