The Adirondack Phantoms
are proud to introduce the G.O.A.L.
program to local schools. The GOAL is
designed to teach students to Get Out
and Live and fight against
child obesity.
The program features the Adirondack
Phantoms mascot “Dax” and
a Phantoms assistant as they teach kids
different techniques and opportunities
to stay active and healthy.
The GOAL program is designed to demonstrate
a more active lifestyle for children,
and encourages healthy dietary habits.
GOAL is based on Michelle Obama’s
Let’s Move initiative, and developed
by local principals, physical educators
and school nutritionists in conjunction
with New York State public health and
education objectives.
GOAL is built on a five-point program:
1. Eat a healthy breakfast
2. Eat a variety of fruits and vegetables
3. Drink lots of water
4. Be active for 60 minutes each day
5. Limit “screen time” to
two hours a day
The GOAL program is available to all
local schools upon request by calling
the Phantoms’ Director of Fun
& Community Development, Andrew
Hill at 518-480-3355.
