Fitness Frankie's Lake Placid Adventure!


Hi everyone,

Cross Country Skiing
     I had the most AMAZING adventure during our winter vacation!  Miss H took me to Lake Placid with her family and friends!  I learned that the Winter Olympics were held in Lake Placid in 1932 and 1980!  There were so many cool winter sports to try and Miss H let me go along and try them out!  We dressed in warm clothes (Miss H and I have new matching scarves!) and then we were ready to go!  We went cross country skiing, snowshoeing, tubing, and snowmobiling!  We got so much exercise and we made some terrific safe and healthy choices!  Miss H helped me write a book about this adventure and Mrs. R is reading it to the boys and girls during PE class this week!  If you want to see more pictures of this and other adventures click here!
I met some new friends during this adventure and I told them all about Healthy Highway!  I mean really, what's not to love about Healthy Highway!
Love, Fitness Frankie

Healthy Hannah Goes Snowshoeing!

Hi everyone,
     I had an amazing Winter Vacation with Mrs. R!  She took me to the Adirondack Mountains to a place called Chatiemac Lake with her family and friends!  There was so much snow!  I am not used to snow since I am from Savannah, Georgia!  It was pretty cold outside and Mrs. R told me that it was important to wear the right clothes when exercising outdoors.  Mrs. R got me a new sweatshirt so I was nice and warm!  I am a bear after all.......
When we were dressed warmly and had packed our water for the trip, Mrs. R taught me how to snowshoe!  That's me in the picture!  We hiked in the woods with friends and made our own trail and then we took a trail called Second Pond Trail.  It was so beautiful!  We got some great exercise!  Some of our friends went cross country skiing while we were snowshoeing.  Maybe another time I can learn how to do that!  I love the snow - don't you?

I also made some new friends while I was on vacation......can you tell?
I LOVE Healthy Highway!
Love,
Healthy Hannah
