Recap of 2009 event

Event summary:
Families walked together, received t-shirts as they finished two laps. People between the ages of 3 and 73 played together with frisbees, hula hoop relays, walking, volleyball, whiffle ball, and football passing. The weather was perfect for a day of family activities.

Comments:
One adult stated, "It is so good to see families enjoying fun time together."

"The Cooperative Extension Service is ideally positioned to facilitate a project like 2nd Sunday that requires grassroots organization at the county level combined with statewide coordination. I am delighted that we are a key leader of this partnership that is so visibly promoting health and wellness for the Commonwealth."
