Get Active La Crosse County

Cause. Community. Change.

It’s an unfortunate fact that the vast majority of La Crosse County residents—both adults and children—lead a lifestyle that doesn’t promote health. We all have room to improve so that we can live healthy, productive, fulfilling lives, whether it’s being more active, watching less television, or eating better.

But it can be hard. Healthier food can cost more and be harder to find. Being more active takes extra time that many of us simply don't have.

There are now a number of programs in La Crosse County that are going to help eliminate many of these barriers and make it easier for all of us to take better care of ourselves, our families, and our communities.

So let’s Get Active!

Get Active is a call to action...it asks that every man, woman and child in our county take charge of the health of our community.

Get Active is a movement to change our community—a change that challenges us to work together to make healthy eating and active living the easy choice. 

Get Active starts by giving our community knowledge... information that will help us think about what and where we eat, how we get to work and school, and how we live, work and play. It will help us think about how we can improve the place that we live so healthy choices are easier.

Get Active is about creating a better tomorrow for our children and their children.

Get Active does not ask for a total transformation, but small changes. If we, as a community, make these small changes, it will be easier for all of us to eat healthier and lead active lifestyles. 

Together we CAN do this. 

It's time for all of us to Get Active! and Cause. Community. Change.
