EVENTS CALENDAR

Fit City is an exciting city-wide initiative that incorporates the mind, body, character and commmunity into the definition of what it means to be 'fit.' Lead by Mayor Costas and the Fit City Council, each month the residents of Valparaiso will be challenged to do a bit more to improve one's overall health. Sign up for a new class, bike to work, cook a nutritious meal as a family! Look for the Mayor's challenge to be announced on the first Monday of each month. Each month's challenge will be different.
