Orioles Health & Fitness Challenge

Middle schoolers in Sarasota County are once again hitting the gym this school year to learn about healthy lifestyles through the Orioles Health & Fitness Challenge. Launched in 2016, the partnership with Sarasota County Schools teaches students about the importance of physical fitness, healthy eating, and tobacco-free living.

During the five-week Challenge, more than 4,500 students in grades six through eight participate in a variety of health and fitness activities led by Sarasota County Physical Education teachers.

Now in its eighth year, the Challenge curriculum continues to be enhanced to emphasize tobacco-free living and better nutrition. The program also was expanded in 2017 to include Oak Park School, where faculty adapted the curriculum for students with special needs.

Complete the fitness program to receive an offer code for two free tickets to the February 24th game. Purchase up to two more tickets at $5.00 each (ticket fees apply).
