This week was perfect to promote all the activities going on in the community and the reason for getting out and being active with your family,” said Becky Squiers, Community Wellness Coordinator at Community Partners.
A few of the events included, University of Kearney sporting events, MONA Art gallery show, City of Kearney Storybook Walk and Bicycle Sunday, Prescription Takeback, YMCA Healthy Kids Day, and the Girls on the Run 5k.
