Library Connection: Conway Library receives Let’s Go! grant from Memorial Hospital

The Conway Public Library received a generous grant from Memorial Hospital through the Let’s Go! program. Let’s Go! is an obesity prevention initiative working with communities to create environments that support healthy choices. Bringing evidence-based strategies for healthy living into schools, child care and out-of-school programs, health care practices, and workplaces, Let’s Go! reaches children and adults where they live, learn, work and play.

Every Monday from 3:30 to 5 p.m. librarians, Tara and Jeff will provide healthy snacks and enjoyable physical activity for school-age kids in the Ham Room and library park. These brain-boosting treats and activities will be demonstrated in a way that may easily be carried over at home, encouraging an active and healthy lifestyle.
