Ohio University's Marching 110 will perform in the 74th annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City. The parade will be televised from 9 a.m. to noon Thursday, Nov. 23. This event is the band's first Big Apple appearance since 1976, when it became the first marching band ever to play in Carnegie Hall. The band departs from campus at 4 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 21.
Thanksgiving can make a turkey out of anybody trying to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
The key is moderation in both diet and exercise, advises Kim Valentour, director of Ohio University's WellWorks wellness program. Remember, you've got to see your toes before you can touch them. She advises that people avoid overeating at one big meal. Also, it's important to maintain physical activity over the holiday. Walking, biking or dancing are good ways to burn off the fat.
