A big thank you to Hawkinson Construction,who is so generously providing sand to refresh the sandbox at River Place. Also, to the City of Grand Rapids who will be providing the labor to replace the swings! The team is working on scheduling a day to have wood chips delivered. On this day we will host a Community Beautification Day. Our hope is that volunteers will come to help get some clean up done. For the users of Face Book a Supporters of River Place Park group has been set up. All the meeting notes are posted there!
The Healthy Eating Group will meet today at Eagle Ridge Golf Course 3:30pm to create a plan for the next move in the Get Fit Itasca: Greenway initiative. Anyone interested is welcome!
I am still trying to connect with someone from the South West side of town that would be interested in arranging a group of neighbors to complete the Community Healthy Living Index (CHLI) Survey. The research will help Get Fit Itasca identify the strengths and weaknesses the community of Grand Rapids has in regards to healthy eating and active living. If interested please contact Meghan Bown 37-1161 ext.237.
