This Saturday, February 27, join the Snowshoe Romp & Snowball Stomp at the Clar-Mill Hall in Plevna from 10:30am-12:30pm. This fun event will be the launch of the KFL&A Region Healthy Kids Community Challenge in the Plevna area. Come and try out snowshoeing; participate in races; stomp some snowballs and enjoy a hot dog and hot chocolate. Everything at the event is free and snowshoes will be provided for anyone interested to try out!

The Kingston, Frontenac and Lennox & Addington (KFL&A) region is one of 45 communities participating in the Healthy Kids Community Challenge, an initiative of the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care and part of Ontario’s Healthy Kids Strategy.

The Healthy Kids Community Challenge is a multi-themed initiative with the first theme titled “Run. Jump. Play. Every Day.”

The City of Kingston is receiving up to $1,125,000 from the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care to fund the Healthy Kids Community Challenge over the next three years to support communities in KFL&A in promoting physical activity and healthy eating for children 12 years and under and their families.
