ABS Fit Kids Club Blog Spot

Welcome to the Albert Bridge School Fit Kids Club Blog Spot!!! The intention of this blog spot is to give daily and weekly updates on our adventures in the club. This way you, as a parent of a fellow Fit Kid Club Member can share in the adventure yourself! I will also use this blog to let you know of any location changes or give additional updates regarding the club. I also hope to put up pictures of our adventures (with parental permission of course) and maybe even allow some of our club members to write something on here from time to time sharing their own personal Fit Kids Club stories.

Right now we have on an average Monday and Wednesday around 20-36 kids signed up. Which has myself and my fellow partner in crime Andrea Powell extremely excited about! Both Andrea and I work at ABS full time and in the years past have been the coaches for Girls On The Run. A program that we loved being a part of, but felt that our school truly need a more co-educational after school sports program that would allow younger students to participate in as well. 

Which lead us to forming the ABS Fit Kids Club! Our Fit Kids Club has been formed with the bases of getting our students outside into the natural environment that surrounds our school. With so many recreational activities that take place in our own backyard. It seemed only fitting that we should bring something to the students that gives them the ability to be exposed to things like trail running, mountain biking, hiking and golf. This will also allow for Fit Kids members to connect with community members that are highly experienced in their sport. Some going as far as even representing the United States!

All of these factors have us super excited about getting Fit Kids started! We can't wait to be outside and enjoying the beautiful surroundings we live in!
