Physical Activities and Grants

Under the "Education"topics on the March 19, 2013 NBC Nightly News broadcast were these three videos about innovative physical education or wellness programs, acquiring the equipment through writing grants and the positive results of the activity on academics.  What can you do in your community?

Think rock climbing wall, treadmills with video monitors featuring games, a light-up dance area, kayaking, and so many other fun activities.  Even the gym classroom is a social center where students can participate with or exercise beside friends and chat.
