National Tour Hopes to Get Saint John Moving

The city's boardwalk will be busy today as the “Inspire the nation” tour encourages people to get up and get moving. The tour is visiting 31 communities in the country with ideas on how to make fitness part of everyday life. The not-for-profit organization ParticipACTION and Sun Life Financial are sponsoring the tour which wraps up August 27th.

They’re hoping to stem what they call a crisis caused by a lack of activity among millions of Canadians. They’ll be set up on the boardwalk from noon until six and will be joined by the Saint John YMCA, along with the City's Leisure Services and Rockwood Park's Daytripping.
