Boys & Girls Clubs of Hall County receives grant to implement Falcons Fitness Zone

Thursday September 01, 2005 - In Fall 2005, the Atlanta Falcons Youth Foundation launched its Signature Program – the Falcons Fitness Zone. Through a partnership with The Boys & Girls Clubs of Hall County, this program serves as a direct youth obesity intervention initiative promoting physical fitness and healthy eating. This program is designed to encourage Club members to participate and be physically active for at least 30 minutes five days a week.

The AFYF has committed over $1 million over a three-year period to the Boys and Girls Clubs of Hall County. Through the Falcons Fitness Zones, the AFYF works with community partners to leverage existing physical fitness programs for youth, and enhance them through the strategic use of Atlanta Falcons resources.
