‘Eat Smart, Play Hard, Have Fun’ This Summer

NEW MILFORD —  New Milford Hospital is again inviting families to participate in an innovative wellness program, “Eat Smart, Play Hard, Have Fun.” This eight-part series is designed to help families learn how to plan healthy meals, maintain a healthy weight, and stay active as a family.

Each class is built around the core principles that nutrition, regular exercise, and behavior change drive healthy weight maintenance, not dieting. The goal of the program is to help change behaviors so that the entire family adopts healthy dietary choices and engages in regular exercise

Classes are held at a variety of locations to promote family activities. Course highlights include a cooking demonstration with a professional chef, outdoor adventures at the Pratt Nature Center, and a “Graduation Party” at the beautiful March Farms in Bethlehem.

The cost for this series is $50 per family. These classes are scheduled for Tuesday evenings, July 12 through August 30 from 6 to 7:30 pm.

Preregistration is requested by calling toll free 800-350-1595 or on the hospital website, www.newmilfordhospital.org.
