It's also a great way to involve students, parents, and the community in planning and participating in a fun school event. Each school organizes its own Project A.C.E.S. activity. Participants can exercise, walk, jog, bike, dance, do aerobics, or plan a combination of activities for the 15-45 minutes of the project. Feel free to be as creative as you like. Many schools choose to invite local celebrities or fitness leaders to the event and play music to create a festive atmosphere.
Organizers can choose to get the whole school or selected classes involved.
Just remember to have a backup plan if you organize outside activities. Project A.C.E.S. has been praised by the President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports and the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance for focusing attention on the importance of physical activity in maintaining health. I hope you will encourage schools in your corporation to participate in this exciting event.
