Get Kids Outside and Active on our Network of Trails

Of course, the key players in the fight to end obesity are parents, community members and the kids themselves. That’s why it’s important to get the word out about the resources that already exist to help kids stay active and fit. Trailsnet.com is one of the resources available to help kids lead a healthy lifestyle using their community trails as a way of staying healthy. That is why Trailsnet is trying to encourage more active use of our website. By adding their own trails and finding trails that are already in place, children will spend less time in front of the television and more time outside hiking, biking and playing on trails. Trailsnet hopes to secure funding to make our website more kid-friendly to help in the fight against childhood obesity. So please cast your vote today and help Trailsnet.com become a place where kids begin to connect with the great outdoors.
