Recess ROCKS! is now Fitness Fits Everyone! - Sept. 30th

Post by Corey Rossen »

On Sunday, September 30th from 1 – 5pm the 3rd Annual Fitness Fits Everyone! (formerly Recess ROCKS!) presented by Jordan’s Family Foundation will turn Lakewood Park into a large playground and feature dozens of energizing activities for kids and families to have fun and play while also learning a bit about healthy living.

Last year’s event was attended by 3000+ guests with over 75 organizations (including the Cleveland CAVS, Cleveland Indians, American Heart Association, Cleveland Clinic and many others) participating in the fun. The event will give elementary and middle school aged kids an opportunity to commit to better health through games and activities while offering parents a host of new ideas for keeping the whole family healthy.

We are seeking your organization’s participation and support in our efforts of making this a successful community event. If your organization would like to become involved and have a presence at our event with a product demonstration and/or booth display, we would like to have you join in the fun. (Please see attachment for Registration information.)

Fitness Fits Everyone! is an heart-healthy and activity-based event and just one way Jordan’s Family Foundation is fighting childhood obesity, which in turn, can lead to heart disease. We are estimating approximately 4000 – 4500 children, along with their families, will take part in the event.

All those in attendance will be given a large menu of options for their day at the “playground” ranging from physical challenges and sports to educational information and nutrition. A portion of Lakewood Park will be divided into activity stations where each station provides an opportunity to quickly engage kids in healthy activities while not detracting from the real purpose of the day – playing. There will also be informational booths set up throughout the event to distribute promotional material about your organization and healthy living.

Ultimately, the goal of Fitness Fits Everyone! is to create a fun environment for families to learn about healthy living and for kids to make a commitment to be healthy while having fun with other kids in the community.

I look forward to working with you in planning and executing Fitness Fits Everyone! presented by Jordan’s Family Foundation. Please contact me if you have any questions.


Thank you for your time and consideration,

This announcement always brings a smile to my face. When I think about how all of this got
started and why, and what you and Kara and others have come together to build, it is
another high point in a summer of family fun, and helping others in Lakewood.

From last year.

Corey Kara always looks great, and I have to admit you look pretty good and happy here.

Take the family down to the park and enjoy the day.

Keep up the good, well in this case, great work Corey and Kara and Jordan Family Foundation.
