Our vision is to make Harford County the healthiest community in Maryland by helping people lead more active lifestyles and improving their daily diet. Here you will find local resources to help you get fit and stay healthy. You'll also find information about what's happening in our community and how you can get involved in helping to make our county the healthiest in Maryland!
On March 12th five lucky families were chosen to take part in the twelve week Healthy Harford Family Fit 4 Life program. Co-sponsored with the Arena Club and Upper Chesapeake Health, these contestants are embarking on a challenge to come together as a family to eat better, exercise, and get Fit 4 Life. Only one, however, will win the Grand Prize of a free year membership to the Arena Club and a professional piece of gym equipment for their home. Personal trainers, nutritionists, free gym access, sounds like a dream come true….until brushing your teeth becomes a chore because your muscles are so sore it hurts to raise your arms, your favorite lunch of cheese steak and fries is off limits, and sitting in front of the TV playing video games for hours is no longer an option. Change is never easy, and the path to our goals is sometimes paved with endless crunches, muscle fatigue, and yes, salad. Follow these families on our blog,root for your favorite team, and see which family has what it takes to be Fit 4 Life!
