The Air Force Serivces’ 101 Days of FitFactor Summer Fun begins its second year providing healthy summer fun activities for authorized youth ages 6-18 years old. Over 10,000 youth have participated in the FitFactor Program across the Air Force. Although the FitFactor program is available all year, 101 Days of FitFactor Summer Fun is an accelerated summer program which will allow youth to earn additional points for summer activities. Authorized youth include military family members and civil service/nonappropriated fund civilian family members when space is available. Children do not have to be members of the youth center to participate, but they should go to the youth center to register and obtain their on-line pass codes.
The FitFactor program is designed to stimulate interest and encourage youth to maintain or become more physically fit. The program encourages at least sixty minutes of physical activity each day, plus helps teach healthy eating habits and lifestyle choices. Six levels of activity are available: Energy, Strength, Agility, Adventure, Endurance, and Feel the Power. The program is self‑paced with each participant earning points for participation which may be redeemed for a variety of prizes. The program includes activities with friends and family in fun physical activities which help limit the amount of screen time in front of the television or computer. Youth participating in the FitFactor program can also learn about healthy lifestyles from the web site as well as logging in the points they earn while participating in the program.
More information about the program is available on line at www.afgetfit.com or at the base Youth Center. |
