Turn Off the Screens

Turn Off the Screens - Move it to Groove it!

School Challenge 2008!

The Thunder Bay District Health Unit in partnership with Take Heart Schools wants to thank all the schools and community members who came out to support the 5th annual Turn Off The Screens Challenge!

We challenged kids and their families to stay screen free for one week, from May 5th - 9th 2008 and to track their fun activities.

This year's winner of the all day Dance Party with Maverick Music Services Inc was HOLY FAMILY Elementary School for the best participation rate during our Turn Off The Screens Challenge!

Congratulations to all of our Grand Prize winners and their families! Have a safe and ACTIVE summer!
