By Nicole Volek, PTA-CC

On Thursday, January 13, 2005, at the First Colony mall food court approximately 200 local seniors will receive awards from Sugar Land Mayor, David Wallace for completing a 12-week exercise program called Texercise.

Mayor Wallace will challenge all the Sugar Land citizens to participate in the Governor's Texas Round-Up in an effort to retain the title of "The Fittest City in Texas." The city's ultimate vision is to be recognized as "The Fittest City in America."

Mayor David Wallace of Sugar Land hands out Texercise certificates to the 10-week Texercise fitness program participants.

Mayor Wallace's three year mission is to maximize the health and well being of individuals throughout the City of Sugar Land by developing and delivering results-oriented health promotion programs at the worksite and community events that support the process of positive lifestyle changes. The aging of the baby boom generation is no longer an issue that is out there in the future…It's here right now!
