Healthy Hays 2010 is a program to measurably improve the health of the Hays Community by the year 2010. Hays Medical Center, Eagle Communications and the Hays Daily News have combined to promote healthy activities throughout the next five years.
Initially 2,010 people will be given Mini Assessments to record their present health status. For the next five years they will be reassessed to record the changes that have occurred. There will be special events designated as Healthy Hays 2010 activities that are designed to get people out to “Move It” with the goal being that somewhere along the way they will “Lose It” and that doesn’t just mean weight. It may mean you lose stress, you lose tension, you lose the need for some medications. The whole point is to get your body moving and feel better.
By 2010 we hope to have a Healthier, Happier Hays Community.
