SummerActive
A message from the Healthy Living Unit / Centre for Health Promotion:

The summer months are an ideal time to do more of the healthy activities you
already enjoy, and even try out some new ones.

The Government of Canada, along with the provincial and territorial
governments, can help you get and stay on a healthy track. Through our
SummerActive initiative, you'll find the opportunities and information you
need to get physically active, eat healthily, live tobacco-free and
participate in sport opportunities.

SummerActive 2008 runs from May 8th to June 20th. During this time,
community leaders organise and promote events and programs that encourage
Canadians to adopt healthier lifestyles. Whether it be getting your
colleagues together for a daily lunch hour walk, or setting up an "eating
light" cooking class for your friends - why not take the initiative, become
a "leader"  and encourage your friends, family or coworkers to get
SummerActive with you? The SummerActive website at www.summeractive.ca
provides tons of information on how you can make your event a success. Then
register your event on the SummerActive site at www.summeractive.ca, and
encourage participants to register their involvement.

Both leaders and participants can register their participation in
SummerActive to be eligible to win great prizes!
So take advantage of everything a Canadian summer has to offer and Get up,
go out, be SummerActive!!
