This class is designed to help participants gain a greater appreciation for and understanding of the role nutrition and physical activity has in promoting health and well- being. Participants are encouraged to learn about how nutrition and physical activity affect the overall health (including physical performance and disease risk) of an individual or group. This class is intended to provide an opportunity for 4-H’ers, as an individual, club or team, to plan and develop an exhibit that shares what they have learned about nutrition and physical activity in relation to health.
