J.D.
LEVER WALKING CLUB
Students
at J.D. Lever in grades K-5 are participating in a 12 week walking
club sponsored by Blue Cross/Blue Shield. The name of this program
is Walking Works for South Carolina Schools. Every class is
encouraged to walk at least 5 minutes each day. Teachers have
been given a United States map with footprints starting in South
Carolina and ending at Disneyland in California. Teachers write
down the total minutes walked for each day on a footprint. Total
minutes walked will be added up at the end of the 12 weeks and
those classes who walked at least 270 minutes will receive an
incentive prize. Each teacher was also given a pedometer to
allow students to see how many steps they take during their
walk. The contact at Blue Cross/Blue Shield is Annie Fearon
(803-382-5068).
