MS. PAM EYKING « » : Mr. Speaker, I rise today to
remind the members of the importance of
promoting physical activity in our communities. I
recently had the opportunity to speak at Baddeck
Academy that celebrated Victoria County's physical
activity strategy initiatives. Victoria County has
been implementing the physical activity strategy,
which encourages an active and healthy lifestyle
through participation in daily physical activity.
“I want to acknowledge all of the
community leaders, champions and
volunteers at the local level.
You are all doing an amazing job providing
those opportunities and creating those
conditions for people of all ages to be
healthy and active. There is a wonderful
spirit of cooperation here in Victoria
County” – Larry Maxwell
Hi Vince
“I just wanted to thank you for including me in
your celebrations for the amazing progress
shown by your Naturally Active Strategy. I had
a wonderful time in Victoria County with you,
the Councillors, the kids in the schools... The
rainbow incredible, and I even saw FOUR
moose on the trail !!!” – Heather Moyse

Volunteers, Organizations,
