awqr <br /> MEMO TO: Mounds View Parks and Recreation Commission <br /> 4111 <br /> FROM: Staff <br /> DATE : January 3 , 1984 <br /> RE: Wellness Program Development <br /> Enclosed is a copy of the January/February City Newsletter and <br /> Winter Recreation Brochure which outlines the program listings <br /> relayed to the healthy lifestyle program. As you are aware , we <br /> have entered into a very informal joint powers agreement with the <br /> City of New Brighton to develop a healthy lifestyle program for <br /> the residents of our two respective communities. We have retain- <br /> . ed the services of Ms. LeAnn Linder to coordinate the program and <br /> have received a grant from the state job training center to pay <br /> for ner salary. <br /> The healthy lifestyle program is a new direction for our depart- <br /> ment and we are encouraged by the initial support and involvement <br /> from the community. New program offerings include "Freedom from <br /> Smoking" , "Healthy Eating Habits" , "Personal and Family Communi- <br /> cations" , "Managing Stress and Relaxation Skills" , as well as <br /> "Personal Health Appraisal" and "Aerobics" . <br /> Our long range plans are to develop a healthy lifestyle program <br /> • package that will be marketed and/or sold to local businesses , <br /> churches , civic and community organizations. Although this is <br /> strictly in the dream stages at this time , we do envision that <br /> this could become a very important phase of our program develop- <br /> ment in future years . <br /> Staff will be expanding on this concept and getting into more <br /> depth regarding the wellness programming efforts at Thursday <br /> evening ' s meeting . I would encourage you to review the wellness <br /> program offerings in the attached newsletter , as they are a <br /> brea< from our past programming efforts. <br /> BKA/sl l <br />
