For the first quarter of the year, the Springville Library will be offering a wellness program : “Healthy Start – 2012”. We want to help all of us have a healthy new year. Each month, we will offer a nutrition class and an exercise class.
January’s nutrition class was Wednesday, January 4th at 7:00pm. Entitled “Kick the Diet, Keep the Resolution”, we learned about the new My Plate and how it can help you to eat healthy the right way. Raven Albertson & Julia Iverson – certified nutrition educators from USU’s Food$ense Extension program, were our instructors. They will be back on the first Wednesday of each month with another class for us!
January’s exercise class will be Zumba taught by Desree Bennett of Super Fitness. Join Desree here at the Library on Wednesday, January 18th at 7:00pm. Have you heard about Zumba and want to try it? Now is your chance! Come for a fun, energizing work-out!
For more details about our “Healthy Start – 2012” program, please pick up an instruction sheet at the adult information desk. We encourage you to come to each of the nutrition and exercise classes that will be offered monthly. If you come to at least 3 of the 6 classes and complete a short form, you can be entered in a prize drawing at the end of March.
