Happy Memorial Day weekend. We hope everybody is enjoying time with their families and remembering those who aren’t with them anymore. We hope you are especially thinking of those who fought for and are fighting for our freedom. The thought for this newsletter comes after my return from the Cub/Cardinal game yesterday. As my wife and I were sitting on the train, going home from the ballgame, she pointed out some people on the train who sat in front of us at the game. It wasn’t hard to identify them. They were all heavy set and all had the same posture. Unfortunately for the child, he looked the same as the adults, but he was 25 years younger. The government and scientific agencies spend tons of money doing research on why we as a society are so heavy and our children are getting even heavier. Take a look around. People aren’t taking care of themselves. The parents lead by example. It only makes sense kids take their parent’s leads. Unfortunately, parents aren’t doing a good job leading. As a result, kids are getting larger. Rather than saying we are victims of our society, take a stand and do something about it. Be responsible for yourself and your children. Start eating healthy. Start exercising routinely. Take an active involvement in your children’s physical activities. You will be surprised at how much influence your actions have on your children.You don’t want to be somebdy your children are remembering on Memorial Day.

A few items of business, deadline for sign-up for our summer camps is Friday, June 4th. If you have any questions, call either Steve or Larry (847-395-6100). Our Saturday and Sunday workouts at Grass Lake School are on hold as we make preparations for our summer camps. We can arrange workouts upon request. Once again, call either Steve or Larry if you would like us to meet you at Grass Lake School the weekend of June 5th or June 12th. We are happy to announce we will have a summer intern from the MCC F.I.T. program interning with us during the summer camp. We are happy to be starting an affiliation with Mchenry County College. This affiliation will help us stay on track in providing the most up-to-date training techniques science and research can provide. We hope to see more of you in our programs as time goes on. If you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to call us or e-mail us. Have a good week.
