Scout out Scout

Physical activity is important - and attainable - at any age or stage in your life.  Getting the recommended physical activity as outlined by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), plays a vital role in your overall health and well-being.  It not only can improve your mood but can help reduce your risk of chronic disease as well.  However, 1 in 4 American adults and 1 in 5 children (6-17) aren't meeting CDC recommendations.

Not sure where to start?  Scout is here to help!

Get ready for a summer with Scout!  Through our Scout out Scout initiative, the Foxborough Health Department is encouraging our community to get outside this summer, stay physically active, and explore fun ways to move more!

Each week between Memorial Day and Labor Day, Scout will be somewhere in Foxborough staying active and sharing some health and safety tips along the way!  Click the tabs below to find where Scout will be and where he'll share some of his favorite family-friendly activities you can do to keep your body moving!  So, join the fun, scout out Scout, and add a little extra movement to your daily life. 

Don't forget to print out Scout's BINGO sheet too!  Once you get a BINGO, stop by the Foxborough Health Department office (40 South Street, 2nd Floor) to receive a fun prize (one per child please and while supplies last).

We also want you to be safe!  If you have any questions or concerns around physical activity and you or a family member's health, please consult with your healthcare provider before getting started.
