Subject: Fun, Fitness & Health: October 25th @ Burrel Field

Dear SLUSD Colleagues,

Save the date:  Sunday October 25th, 10:00 am - 3:00 pm

The newly created San Leandro Sports Foundation (SLSF) is hosting a mega event to S.O.S. (Save Our Sports) and help create a culture of health for SLUSD Families+Friends.  On October 25th, students from Kindergarten through 12th grade will participate in our inaugural Walkathon, Fitness Fair, Team Challenge.  The event will take place at Burrell Field from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm.

The Fitness Fair will feature several community health resources and fitness demonstrations (Ballet Foklorico, Pallen Martial Arts, KidFit by Bay-O-Vista, The Kennel Boxing Gym, and more).  The children will particularly love the Kids Play Area with inflatable bouncy houses and Wii Fit activities.

The SLHS Booster club will offer healthy snacks including chicken sausages, tri-tip sandwiches, local produces, and more.  Come on down, walk a few laps around the track, and support SLUSD's sports and fitness programs.

You can find more information or register on line at www.slsfi.org.  A $5 donation per participant is suggested.  There are also several volunteering opportunities available for adults and students in need of community service hours.
