The City of Coconut Creek Parks and Recreation Department will offer an intensive 6 week exercise program for kids, between the ages of 10 and 15, who are 20% or more above their ideal body weight.

The program will be Thursday from January 18, 2007 through February 22, 2007, from 5:00 pm to 5:45 pm. Classes will focus on physical fitness and the importance of staying active. Healthy recipes will also be sent home. Participants will be challenged to get in better physical shape - while developing great new habits and friends! Being physically fit increases kids self-esteem and confidence. Prizes will be awarded to the top three participants who lose the most weight. T-shirts will be given to all participants at the end of the program.

Fees are $30.00 for residents and $40.00 for non-residents. The program will take place at the Coconut Creek Community Center, 1100 Lyons Road.
