Floyd County Physical Activity Coalition

We are a group of representatives from various Floyd County businesses and organizations who share a common goal to increase the time our residents (young and old) spend exercising or being active on a daily basis.

Our Mission Statement: Increase physical activity of Floyd County residents 10 minutes at a time through education and awareness.

  “Give Me 10” Campaign

Our community campaign is to encourage Floyd County businesses, churches, schools, individuals, and families to incorporate at least 10 minutes of exercise every day.

Don’t you think you can find 10 minutes, out of a 24 hour day, to be active?

10 minutes to increase your health! 10 minutes to feel better! 10 minutes for the chance to live longer!

 

Need Some Ideas for When to Fit It In?

  • Don’t hit snooze, instead get up and “Give Me 10”
  • Ask your employer if they can provide a “Give Me 10” physical activity break. (A lot of them used to provide smoke breaks)
