Health Fair & Fitness Challenge in Indio
The City of Indio and the Indio Chamber of Commerce will present “Get Fit Indio” on Saturday, March 12, at Indio Community Center Park. This free event is dedicated to improving the overall health and well being of the entire community through education, information, services and encouragement. “Get Fit Indio” will feature ven-
dor booths focused on the principles of healthy living and the resources available to help achieve those goals, plus cooking demonstrations on how to prepare healthier dishes. There will also be martial arts, gymnastics, yoga, dance, cheer and basketball demonstrations. “In a time when so much of our focus tends to be on electronic
devises and video games, it’s important to educate ourselves about the pillars of a healthy lifestyle,” said Indio Mayor Glenn Miller. “This is a fantastic event for the community to encourage each other’s fitness goals while enjoying a day of sunshine and fresh air.” All attendees are invited to participate in the “Mayor’s Mile”
1-mile walk. Finishers 18 years and older will be eligible to win tickets to the Stagecoach Country Music Festival and Disneyland (only one prize per participant). Indio Community Center Park is located at 45-871 Clinton Street, Indio. For more information about this year’s Get Fit Indio event, call (760) 347-0676 or visit www.indiochamber.org.
