My Project

Motivating students after the pandemic to be well, maintain fitness & stay healthy has been a challenge in our rural community. As a counselor of the lower elementary kiddos, I am working to have these Title 1 School littles incorporating mindset & good health via learn about triathlon from Big Island triathletes & train to compete with other students from other neighboring schools. My project includes mentors (staff who have been a triathlon or train); these bikes will help provide opportunities for these littles to compete in a first ever kids triathlon (bike & run) at our school in the spring.
