While spending the afternoon with my granddaughter this past week, she kept talking about jumping rope. I finally figured out the part I was missing. The is sponsoring a month-long fund-raising and fitness campaign throughout March, called Little Jumps. Big Changes. It concentrates on promoting health and wellness among our children in an effort to reduce obesity. All money raised during the month will go into one of the club’s many health and life skills programs. The campaign culminates March 30 with a day of celebration and jumping rope! Now you know the rest of the story (as Paul Harvey used to say). Donation details are at www.sdyouth.org.
COLLECTION AT THE CONNECTION
If it’s the fourth Thursday of the month it must be time to collect more back yard produce. The backyard produce project provides supplemental fresh fruit and vegetables to more than 50 families a month in our community. After a rainy weekend yours should be looking good. Don’t throw it away. Bring it to at 14047 Twin Peaks Rd. from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. You can also take it to in RB on Thursday and now any Monday at Rancho Family YMCA from 6 a.m to 6 p.m.
