National fitness initiative comes to Golden Strip

A grant provided by the Bon Secours St. Francis Health System brought Project Fit America to Simpsonville Elementary School earlier this week. Simpsonville ES is the first school in Greenville County to have Project Fit, which has been placed in over 800 schools across the country. Project Fit includes state-of-the-art equipment, curriculum assistance, teacher training and health education for the classroom.

Representatives from St. Francis and Project Fit America visited the school on Wednesday.
