AIR FORCE LAUNCHES SEASON 5 OF FITFACTOR

The Air Force FitFactor program will launch the start of its fifth year via a worldwide party on 26 Sep 09 in conjunction with Nickelodeon's World Wide Day of Play. The Air Force Airman and Family Services youth fitness and health initiative, FitFactor, has enjoyed tremendous success in its first four years with over fifty-five thousand youth and teens registered in the program and participation on every AF base in each Major Command.

FitFactor was launched in Oct 2005 in an effort to encourage physical activity and healthy eating selections for youth between the ages of 6-18 years old. The FitFactor program stimulates interest and awareness of the importance of healthy lifestyle choices and encourages youth to Get Up, Get Out and Get Fit! Adults are also eligible to register and track their activity points through the interactive web site. Contact or visit your local Air Force Youth Center for more information on the FitFactor program.
