Buffalo, NY – School children across Western New York are being urged to join a brand new fitness challenge.

Students at the the Westminster Community Charter School in Buffalo cheered on their classmates in a match up that included two political leaders.

Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown and County Executive Chris Collins participated in a stack the cup competition. Brown and Collins led two teams all in an effort to motivate students to get active. The Independent Health Foundation kicked off the Fitness for Kids program.
