Fight Against Childhood Obesity in Brainerd

Concern about childhood obesity has come to the Brainerd Lakes Area. The Inter-Professional Workgroup will receive a 50-thousand-dollar grant from the University of Minnesota Academic Health Center and Minnesota Area Health Education Center.
Dr. Mark Gray of the Brainerd Medical Center, among others, look to teach children and their parents about the health benefits of good nutrition and regular physical activity. The pilot program will begin with the third grade classes at Garfield School.
