As we approach the end of the school term Healthy Moves’ staff are in our schools testing the kid’s heart rates with IHT (Interactive Healthy Technologies) wrist heart rate monitors that we were able to purchase with financial support from Slocum Center for Orthopedics & Sports Medicine. We’ve had great success working with the kids and love their excitement in working with the monitors and learning about the levels of fitness they can achieve.
The monitors register yellow for mild, green for moderate, and red for vigorous exercise/movement which we assess during the JumpStart program. The kids are always excited to work with the monitors and to learn about how to increase their physical movement which will in turn make them more healthy. Thanks again to Slocum surgeons for their support.
Thank you to the The Coburg Mercantile Tavern for their support in hosting a successful Healthy Moves fundraiser with Lucas Jackson Trivia night. We had a great turnout and fun was had by all at this successful event!
