CITY OF HUGO <br />PARKS COMMISSION REPORT <br />TO: Parks, Recreation and Open Space Commission <br />FROM: Shayla Syverson, Parks Planner <br />SUBJECT: Health Up and GO Wellness Challenge 2012 <br />DATE: November 3, 2011 for the meeting of November 9, 2011. <br />1. BACKGROUND: <br />At the February 2, 2010 Parks Commission meeting, Dr. Aaron Arvig and Kathy <br />Bystrom made a presentation on the Hugo Health Fair. Arvig, owner of Oneka <br />Chiropractic and founder of the Hugo Health Fair gave a background of the fair. The <br />Health Fair has been held annually for five years and is made possible by a partnership of <br />several health-related businesses in Hugo. Dr. Arvig discussed expanding the Health Fair <br />to include an on-going community health initiative. Kathy Bystrom gave information on <br />the Statewide Health Improvement Program (SHIP), which could potentially fund a <br />health initiative. <br />A Health Sub -Committee was formed. Parks Commissioners Larsen, Schmidt and <br />Berger volunteered to serve on the Sub -Committee. The first meeting was held April 6. <br />2010. <br />At the May 17, 2010 meeting, the City Council discussed the formation of the Health <br />Sub -Committee to look into an on-going community health initiative and SHIP funding. <br />Staff was directed to represent the City of Hugo on the SHIP Community Leadership <br />Team of Washington County. <br />2. SHIP UPDATE: <br />In 2011, the City of Hugo received a $4,000 grant from Washington County. <br />Washington county had received $1.5 million from the Statewide Health Improvement <br />Program to grant out to a variety of organizations to accomplish several health initiatives <br />over several years. The funding ended in August 2011. In 2012, the Minnesota <br />Department of Health re -wrote the criteria for funding and Washington County is not <br />applying for Statewide Health Improvement Program Funds. <br />
