CONWAY — The Mount Washington Valley Age Friendly Community is partnering with NH Moves, a program of the Governor’s Council on Physical Activity and Health, to promote the valley’s participation in the “Granite State 90 Day Summer Challenge.” The challenge is to be physically active for 30 minutes or more every day in the months of June, July and August.

According to Dr. Marianne Jackson, director of the Gibson Center for Senior Services in North Conway, you can hike, bike, swim, jump-rope, walk, dance or garden — move however you like for 30 minutes. Furthermore, the challenge encourages people to look at their health in three domains: mental well-being, nutrition and physical well-being.
