20% Physical Activity Challenge
2010 Legacies Now has created a challenge to motivate British Columbians to increase their physical activity levels. You can adopt a 20% Physical Activity motion in your municipality or within your organization.

Increased physical activity levels for Penticton:

The development of a Penticton specific Active Community Plan will give the Task Force a comprehensive strategy to increase physical activity to the residents of Penticton. The community will become educated in the importance of physical activity as well as provided several opportunities to get moving. Creative marketing together with innovative programming will be one of the outcomes of the Plan which we hope will result in a 20% increase in physical activity.

Sustainability:

The Active Community Plan will be a 4 year strategy (February 2006 – February 2010) wrapping up during the 2010 Vancouver/Whistler Olympics. It will outline how to keep the Initiative's momentum building over the years and maintain focus on the 20% goal.
