thanks Chowder for helping to connect the dots...I had been meaning to contact Pat and Julie of TRAILS FOR YOUTH
but somehow... that obvious connection slipped my mind
yesterday I spoke with my older son's teacher about the letters to Michelle Obama and the Let's Move initiative
apparently my son's teacher does not know the best place to send the kid's letters
maybe Pat and Julie have a strong point of contact
Gwadzilla reader Chowder tells me that TRAILS FOR YOUTH hosted a mountain bike day with the National Park Service and LET'S MOVE at Fort Dupont here in The District

gwadzilla mention of LET'S MOVE
more explanation there about the letters each kid from my older son's class wrote to Michelle Obama
