The Odessa Family YMCA is hosting the Y’s annual Healthy Kids Day on April 20 from 9 a.m. to noon at Mike Neeley Park. This free, annual event features a variety of family-friendly activities to encourage healthy kids, healthy families and a healthy start to the summer season.
Sponsored nationally by Peanuts, Healthy Kids Day’s mission is to turn fun and play into lifelong memories. Healthy Kids Day is a day filled with fun activities, games, entertainment, raffle prizes, and resources to promote health and well-being for our kids and families, a news release said.
“It is so important for kids to stay active over the summer, both physically and mentally,” Crissy Medina, the Odessa Family YMCA CEO/President, said in the release. “At the Y, we believe in providing resources for families to create healthy habits, no matter the time of year. Healthy Kids Day is a fun, free community-wide event that encourages families to take advantage of all the great summer activities the Y has to offer.”
The Odessa Family YMCA’s Healthy Kids Day will have performances from the Permian High School Cheer Team and HipHop and Lettos Dance Studio.
