DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE<br />
One <strong>of</strong> the most important issues communities face today<br />
is a staggering increase in the rates <strong>of</strong> obesity and chronic<br />
disease particularly among our youth.<br />
But did you know that incorporating 30-60 minutes<br />
<strong>of</strong> physical activity into your daily routine can make a<br />
significant difference in you or your child’s well being?<br />
Getting more physically active can be as simple as walking to<br />
work, biking to school, playing in the park or even working<br />
in the yard. The Spring Valley<br />
Community Center and the <strong>County</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong><br />
Department <strong>of</strong> Parks and Recreation are committed to<br />
helping you achieve a healthier lifestyle through our many<br />
affordable activities and programs, from dance classes to<br />
yoga, there truly is something for everyone.<br />
