Thanks to the Minnesota Super Bowl host committee, kids in the Brainerd area will now be able to enjoy the outdoors using new bicycles. Clayton Castle has that story in this week's Northwood's adventure. Super Bowl 52 in Minneapolis is still 10 months away, but Garfield School in Brainerd was the site of another legacy fund grant presentation by the Minnesota Super Bowl host committee. The 52 weeks of giving program is all about providing 52 grants statewide to communities that are all about improving health and wellness for our kids. The grant was presented to Crow Wing Energize, an organization in Crow Wing County whose mission is to promote a healthier active lifestyle. So one of our goal groups is really about healthy lifestyles, encouraging people to make healthier choices so that they're physically feeling better and they can be more fulfilled as they as they go about everyday kind of activities. Now the grant will go towards funding a bicycle program geared towards local children in order to get them more active outdoors. And so the bike program actually was a unique grant opportunity where we could actually target the youth here in this Brainerd lakes area and purchase 60 bicycles and and it's it's really designed to work with the elementary schools and target these these younger folks to get introduced to biking and hopefully that would become a life long activity so that they would not only be doing something good for their bodies but having a lot of fun at the same time. The committee says it picked Crow Wing Energize because of how much it resembles the mission of the legacy fund in promoting exercise and healthy living. We're really impressed with the application focusing on increasing access to physical activity and I think one thing that was really key was that they were looking at not only providing bikes to kids but also teaching them life lessons that they can use from years to come. Crow Wing Energize is one of only 52 organizations in Minnesota receiving a legacy fund grant because of that the organization says this is a huge honor. We are so honored Cara Griffin and I are the co-chairs and all then the rest of the team as well we are so honored that we were chosen to do this. This is the second grant to be awarded in the area the first was the Malax band of Ojibwe last month for Northwood's adventure in Brainerd Clayton Castle Lakeland News. And there'll be another legacy fund grant awarded tomorrow morning at Brainerd High School.
