HOSA Community Awareness Project: Childhood Obesity

by Ruth Ann Squellati
March 03, 2009

Community Awareness group members are Steve Ashby, Maris Lintern, Amanda Horvatin, and Shane O'Brien. They have been putting together many presentations regarding Childhood Obesity to make the community aware of this growing epidemic. For example, they have been involved in the Grundy County Cornfest Parade, presented a lesson on healthy eating to Cub Scout Troup 480, presented information on the radio 103.1 FM, interviewed by Morris Daily Herald, and had a presentation/activity booth at the Career Fair and Home & Health Expo...just to name a few ways they have alerted the community about healthy eating and exercise. These guys are on the move to lend a helping hand to reduce Childhood Obesity in Grundy County!

An example of the Childhood Obesity Community Awareness presentation can be viewed at the video link below.
