For all of you early birds, join us for a morning 5K Cross-Country Run Walk around Maplewood's Campus.  In 2010, the First Lady launched Let's Move to fight the epidemic of childhood obesity.  The Seventh-day Adventist Church has joined some 50 other faith and community organizations in supporting this national initiative.  Sunday, September 25th is "Let's Move Day," an event put on by Adventists InStep for Life to promote healthier lifestyles.  We'll be meeting in the front parking lot of Maplewood Academy at 8:00 am and will be running/walking a cross-country route around Maplewood's campus.  More information about "Let's Move Day" can be found at www.AdventistsInStepForLife.org.
