Families – join Healthy Henry County for fun, games, and learning as you walk a loop around the park. Start by the tennis courts! Some of the stations include boat safety, bike safety, kindness rock painting, an obstacle course for little kids, a healthy snack, bubbles, and various kids games sponsored by local organizations! The Sheriff’s office will be fingerprinting kids and sending you home with an ID kit and car seat techs will be available to check your car seat if needed. There will be giveaways too. We will share more details as we confirm them! If you’ve been to our Healthy Halloween Walk this is very similar! If it happens to rain, the event will be rescheduled for June 12th.
