How can a PTA group use BikeWithMe?
BikeWithMe belives PTA organizations are one of the best available conduits for spreading the word about becoming more active. The obesity (inactivity) crises is society-wide. PTA groups can help make the home environment healthier, a change many experts believe is essential to combatting obesity and inactivity. PTA groups can try a test contest with as few as three families and then introduce the service to middle schools. Everyone must recognize that patience is important when changing the behavior and activity levels of entire communities. Start with small contests. They will grow and become larger with each season. It has taken decades for us to reach the obesity crises we are now in. Reversing those trends will not happen overnight. And everyone must keep in mind, no one can be forced to adopt an active lifestyle. Each person must choose for him or her self to make changes.
