Family Fitness Night

Mapleton Elementary School students and their families recently enjoyed an interactive evening of fun and fitness. "Family Fitness Night" was held to showcase new physical education equipment that was made possible with a grant from MBNA, MSAD#1 and the Mapleton Parent Organization.

Students and their families participated in a variety of activities such as group aerobics, soccer, basketball and strength exercises. Age appropriate stations were set up in various locations to make use of the new equipment.

The pictures below tell the story of the fun and activities of the evening. For more information on any photo, pause your cursor over the image.
