Primrose Students Fight Childhood Obesity at Healthy Hearts Hoedown

Katy area preschoolers recently laced up their dancing shoes for Texas Children’s Hospital and stepped up the fight against childhood obesity, one dance at a time. Five local Primrose Schools (North Mason Creek, Cinco Ranch, Eldridge Parkway, Kelliwood, and Copperfield) hosted a Healthy Hearts Hoedown to encourage the community to get moving for healthy lifestyles and enter the Primrose Schools Family Dance-off (www.familydanceoff.com) to win as much as $30,000 for the hospital.

More than 150 people attended the event, which was sponsored by the Gym Station of Houston and held in conjunction with “Go Texan” Day and the kick-off to the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. Families enjoyed activities, such as line dances, karaoke, a Conga line, a limbo competition, and a chili cook-off. Please mention you found this on www.KatyMagazine.com.
