City of Hoover, Hoover City Schools and Princeton Hoover are implementing a Healthy Hoover Lifestyle.  The goal is for all Hoover employees and residents to participate in the program and modify their diets and get moving to become healthier.  The Six-1 Challenge is a nine-week program with a community goal to log 1,000,000 minutes of exercise.  Visit the website at www.healthyhooverlifestyle.org to register to participate and obtain more information.
 
The Kick-Off for the campaign will be held Monday, March 31st at 6:00 pm at VeteransPark on Valleydale located in front of SpainParkHigh School.  The first 500 people will receive a free Six-1 Challenge t-shirt!  To learn more, please join us Monday night at VeteransPark!
Mayor Tony Petelos will be walking at VeteransPark on Valleydale every Thursday morning at 6:30 am beginning April 3rd.  I hope you will join me!  Click here to read the flyer:  Healthy Hoover Lifestyle.
