Healthy Kids Day

For more than 30 years, Healthy Kids Day has been a day of inspiration for kids and families to keep their minds and bodies active throughout the upcoming summer months and beyond.  

Join us on April 18th for a day of healthy, fun activities that celebrate kids being kids! Enjoy obstacle courses, arts and crafts, face painting, family swim, games, healthy snacks and so much more! 

Make a difference in your community by volunteering at Healthy Kids Day! This fun, high-energy event depends on amazing volunteers to help create a safe, welcoming, and memorable experience for families. Whether you’re assisting with activities, helping with setup, or greeting guests, your time and energy truly make an impact.
