What better place to get active in the summer heat than the local pool? The City of Mount Ayr and pool staff worked hard to reopen the pool this summer. Ringgold County Public Health collaborated with the city to complete a physical activity assessment for the community. This assessment was used to locate funds to help rebuild the sidewalk and walking trail around the pool. A bike rack is being installed at the pool also to promote active transportation.
Ringgold County Public Health, through a Community Transformation Grant (CTG), is striving to make healthy living easy for all ages in our communities.
