YMCA Center for Community Impact
For several months, Owen Lindhartsen, age 8, has been participating in our outreach program Get Up and Move, which encourages at least 60 minutes of physical activity daily. “We play games like capture the flag – that’s my favorite. We also do push-ups, stretching, and other exercises.” Y Staff that have worked with Owen have not only witnessed Owen increase his physical activity, but have noticed a positive shift in involvement with his peers. YMCA Health and Well-Being Director, Kristina Butorac who has worked with Owen says, “He’s such a great kid and I enjoy watching him grow more each week.”
