West Hawaii draws a crowd for their Kickoff Event featuring Dan Buettner!
Blue Zones Project in West Hawaii has officially launched with an event drawing a crowd of over 1,500 people!
On August 26th, Blue Zones Project – West Hawaii put on a fun community event at Kona Commons in the old Sports Authority location. Complete with healthy, ono food, keiki activities, vendors and activities all afternoon, everyone was smiling and inspired to make healthier choices!
The event featured hula workshops, interactive Zumba, a downshift lounge and so many more fun activities.
Over 1,500 people attended the West Hawaii Kickoff.
The event featured keynote presentation by Dan Buettner - Blue Zones founder and New York Times best-selling author of “The Blue Zones Solution.” Dan told his story about the research he did while traveling through the five Blue Zones and gave examples of how Blue Zones Project has worked in other communities across the country as well as in Hawaii.
Nancy checked off every single thing on our personal pledge at Kickoff! She's living long and happy.
West Hawaii is excited to join the other Big Island communities in the Blue Zones Project effort to make the healthy choice the easy choice. Now a countywide initiative, we look forward to seeing a lot more blue around town!
