Summer Play Every Day!


SummerPlayEveryDay.jpgSummer Play Every Day is a summer activity aimed to reverse the trend of obesity and type II diabetes in Nebraska’s children.

The focus of the Summer Scorecard is to encourage and promote physical activity, proper lifestyle and nutrition habits to grade school age children (K-5). The scorecard is an incentive based program that will track the individuals monthly point totals making them eligible for prizes at the end of the summer. The scorecard is designed to be self-reporting with the consistent guidance, encouragement and reinforcement of a coordinator or team leader from an organization in your community.
