 You have made this First Annual Get Up & Go Health and Fitness Campaign
such a huge success that we just feel the need to Celebrate! So
Saturday, May 10th, the campus of Belleville West High School and
adjoining Ravissant Winery will play host to a great celebration of
Health, Fitness and Community. The day will begin with the 2008 Race
for Character registration at 8:45 am (race at 9:30) and will continue with a health and fitness fair,
including activities for young and old, fitness demonstrations, awards and
give-aways. At 2:30pm the World Harmony Run Torch Relay will arrive
with a torch carried through all 50 states by runners. They will
make a short presentation and everyone is encouraged to join in and become
part of our shared goal - Connecting Communities. After seeing the
runners off, we can all wind down with a live band and relaxation at the Ravissant Winery.
 So whether you have been with us from the beginning,
logging your miles and counting your calories, or are just thinking of
getting active now, join us for this fun filled day. There will be
something for everyone; from a climbing wall and activities for the kids,
yoga and martial arts demonstrations, fitness and exercise training, free
tennis instruction from the pros, healthy cooking demonstrations, free
massage and health screening, even free pet health screening (heart, fleas
and weight) and activities for your pets. Kids
can take a 'shot-on-goal' with the St. Louis Blues or compete in fun
activities for prizes. Dozens of partners and sponsors have donated
attendance prizes and there will be drawings throughout the day.
 There will be loads of food and refreshments with something for
everybody. Spontaneous acts of fitness are encouraged, so bring your ball,
tennis racquet or frisbee, great biking and walking areas are
available, and pets are welcome. In the afternoon there will be a live
band, provided by Ravissant Winery and people are encouraged to enjoy the
Winery grounds, picnic, and just enjoy their hospitality.
