Takes Steps Toward Healthier Lifestyles

摘要

In the City of Fontana (population 184,862), a recent study of residents by the San Bernardino County Department of Health reported that 76 percent of adults and 36 percent of youth are either overweight or obese. Of those surveyed, 40 percent do not walk for transportation, fun or exercise. During the 2005-06 school year, only 22 percent of Fontana's 5th, 7th and 9th graders met all six California Department of Education school fitness standards.
