POOL EVENTS




May 2012 is the Month of Strong B.A.N.D.S. promoting fitness & resiliency - You can WIN prizes every Day!
The U.S. Army Strong B.A.N.D.S. campaign promotes Soldier and Family fitness and community well-being by showcasing garrison physical activities during National Physical Fitness and Sports Month in May.  B.A.N.D.S. stands for Balance, Activity, Nutrition, Determination and Strength -- all key components of overall well-being. A program of the U.S. Army Installation Management Command, Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation directorate, the campaign is designed to energize and inspire community members to live a healthy lifestyle. The garrisons will give black and gold wristbands to participants of their activities during the promotion. The black represents determination and the gold, achievement.
