Dear Name:

On (Month, Date , Year at Time) (school name) will be participating in ACES Day—All Children Exercising Simultaneously.
Your attendance and participation at this event will demonstrate to our students that local leaders in our community also
think physical activity and fitness are important.
ACES is a worldwide celebration involving millions of children and more than 400,000 students across the state of Michigan
who will all be physically active at (Time). A related story by the MSNBC News Service illustrates the severity of the
problem.
Heart disease and stroke kill about 40 percent of the population overall and heart disease is the No. 1 killer in most
industrialized countries. But the same factors that can produce heart disease–obesity, poor diet and a lack of
exercise–also can lead to diabetes, so people with diabetes carry an extra risk.
“Just walking 30 minutes a day, reducing your weight by 10 to 15 pounds, can reduce the incidence of diabetes by 58
percent,”said Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy Thompson.
Obviously, we want to motivate our children to be active everyday. There are a number of ways in which you can show
your support and participate in this event. I would be happy to discuss the details with you at your convenience. The
possibilities include:
· joining the children in our planned activities
· leading a group of children in a specific activity
· congratulating the children with high fives as they return to the school building after completing the event
· placing ACES With-a-Friend stickers on children
We look forward to including you in our celebration and hope you will be able to attend. Please call me at (your phone
number) and let me know if you will be joining us. Thank you.
