The annual Healthy Kids Day® hosted by the Statesboro Family YMCA took place on May 4, 2024. This free event was open to the public and filled with activities aimed at promoting health and fun for kids and families as they prepared for summer. Some of the featured activities included family field day activities, group fitness demos, vendors, water activities, bounce houses, and more.
The highlight of the day was the distribution of free fruit to attendees. Hannah Beggs, the Executive Branch Director at the Statesboro Family YMCA expressed that the day was all about kids having fun and enjoying themselves while encouraging physical activity and healthy eating habits. There were various games and activities designed to promote these habits in children providing a safe space for them to play within their community.
