Totally U G!RL at Lethbridge College

April 30, 2012 – Lethbridge College Be Fit for Life is hosting Totally U G!RL (formerly Go Girl) from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., May 5, in the Physical Education Building.

Totally U G!RL is a free event for girls eight to12, designed to encourage and support participants in choosing an active and healthy lifestyle. Girls are invited to participate in a variety of physical activities such as yoga, volleyball, soccer and dance. There will also be sessions on nutrition, art and body image.

 “Recent research tells us that girls this age are less active than their male counterparts,” says Stephanie Wierl, Be Fit for Life project coordinator. “This day has proven to be a positive way to engage and empower girls to live a healthy active lifestyle”

Thanks to local community organizations there will be an interactive Health & Wellness Fair that girls can tour to interactively learn about additional health and wellness information as well as activity opportunities within the community.
