Let's get out there, Grande Prairie! #gpab
Hello #gpab! Winter Walk Day is February 3! All you need to do is walk outdoors for at least 15min! Check out @SHAPE_Alberta for details
We need some of these separated bike lanes in #gpab!
New bike lane installed on Crescent Road in northwest Calgary bikecalgary.org/new-bike-lane-…
Meet our first Associated Facilitator (AF) of the Month, @CollinDillon! AFs are Alberta teachers/health champs who deliver EAS content on our behalf. We are thrilled to work with Collin for the excitement & fire he brings to the world of wellness! Just look at that track suit.
Move more, sleep well, reduce screen time.
JUST RELEASED: Developed in partnership with CSEP, @GovCanHealth, @queensu and @ParticipACTION, the 24Hour Movement Guidelines integrate recommendations for physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep. csepguidelines.ca
Now more than ever is the time to be supporting Albertans to be active through credible, evidence-based and accessible info and practical tools. We have valued our relationship with @Centre4AL and @NoraJohnston227 over many years & are sad to see it close its doors. Huge loss.
Housed at the @UAlberta, the @Centre4AL has communicated the benefits of physical activity and enabled communities to be healthy. At a time of increased need for wellbeing, its sad to see this farewell. centre4activeliving.ca/news/2020/10/f… @AlbertaCulture @BFlanaganUofA @LeelaAheer #ableg
For over 30 years the @Centre4AL has advanced the physical activity and wellbeing of Albertans. More than ever this organization is integral to a healthy and resilient Alberta. @AlbertaCulture @LeelaAheer @APCCP @CMOH_Alberta #abcares
The @Centre4AL has long been a trusted source of information for anyone promoting sport, physical activity and recreation in Alberta. Best of luck to the staff at the Centre on their future endeavours.
Saddened to hear of the news that the @Centre4AL will no longer be operating. The Centre has been a partner and friend and we would like to thank @NoraJohnston227 and staff. Healthy active lives are critical to the physical and mental health of Alberta. centre4activeliving.ca/news/2020/10/f…
Who walked to school today?

Walking or wheeling to school may not be possible for some. Instead, try dropping off at a location 5min away and walking/wheeling the rest of the way!
Not taking the school bus this school year? Be an active school traveller by walking/wheeling to school instead! Families who live farther away can wheel or drive to a drop-off location 5 minutes away from the school and #activetravel the rest of the way! @ELMO_ASRTS @OntarioAST
