Celebrate the 2012 Olympic Summer Games at the Y!


On Saturday, July 28th millions around the world will be tuned in to watch the best athletes from 200 countries from around the world compete for the gold! 

Our First Lady Michelle Obama has been selected to lead the U.S. Delegation to the 2012 Olympic Games.  In celebration, she is calling on families across the nation to not only support Team USA in cheering for our athletes, but to get active in our own communities in participating in “Olympic-inspired” events.

Whether it’s gathering friends and family members together to head over to your neighborhood YMCA for a pool relay race, hula-hoop competition or a pick-up game on the basketball court, we just want you to find an activity that inspires you to move and have fun! 

The YMCA of Central Ohio and First Lady Michelle Obama would love to hear what you have planned this weekend so if you follow us on Twitter, use  hashtags #LetsMoveDay and #YCBUS.

You can also share your fun event with us by “Liking” and sharing updates on our Facebook Fan page - YMCA of Central Ohio.  You can also join in on the nationwide discussion by “Liking” and sharing updates on the Let’s Move Facebook Fan page.

Join us in helping our children get active, live healthier lives and strive for excellence like their Olympic heroes!

Go Team USA!!!
