All About ACES Day
Bach Elementary is joining over 1,000 Michigan schools to be a part of ACES (All Children Exercise Simultaneously). Over 300,000 children from all over Michigan will be exercising on Wednesday, May 2 at 10 a.m! ACES Day shows that physical activity is both important and fun!
Approximately 300 Bach students will walk to the “Big House” with Bach teachers and participate with hundreds of students around Michigan and U of M athletes to celebrate how fun and exhilarating it can be to exercise!
ACES Day is sponsored by the Michigan Fitness Foundation and Farm Bureau Insurance of Michigan. They provide a free online ACES Tool Kit for each school, along with stickers for each participant and an educational brochure on family opportunities for walking and biking in Michigan. These materials can be accessed at michiganfitness.org/aces.
ACES is an important program because it shows children that physical activity can be fun. Sadly, an increasing percent of our nation’s children are overweight, a risk factor for many chronic diseases including heart disease and Type 2 Diabetes. Getting children involved in regular physical activity (at least 30 minutes a day, most days of the week) can significantly lower that risk.
For more information about ACES or other programs of the Michigan Fitness Foundation, visit michiganfitness.org.
If anyone is interested in participating and helping out with ACES Day, please do not hesitate to join us. We would love your company! If you would like to volunteer, please email me at champagne@aaps.k12.mi.us.
Thank you, I look forward to ACES Day!
