…while getting fresh air and exercise
Graeme Thain and his daughter Alex know the value of staying fit. Their family dog, six-and-a-half-year-old River, can’t wait for her daily jaunt outdoors.
The long, sun-filled days of June make it the perfect month to get outside and get active. The City of Camrose and Alberta Recreation and Parks Association (ARPA) are jointly urging every citizen of the community to explore Camrose, while getting fresh air and exercise.
Provincially, June is officially Recreation and Parks Month (JRPM). Camrose is blessed with impressive parks, well-thought-out trails and a multitude of green space. Why not make it your goal to visit each and every one of these free, local, attractions? A separate JRPM challenge (https://sites.google.com/arpaonline.ca/jrpm2021/contests/jrpmchallenge) will award prizes to participants who undertake 30 fun activities in 21 days or less.

There’s even a cool app that you can download, featuring a nation-wide initiative to track your ParticipACTION Community Better Challenge activity minutes at https://www.participaction.com/en-ca/ programs/community-challenge. If you so choose, you can submit your movement time for a chance to win an awesome prize. Better still, if enough people from the City do the same, we, as collective residents, could enjoy a wonderful community prize!
