Get Out!

GO! Green & Gold Training Camp, July 12!
We’ll kick off the 2008 Summer/Fall GO Campaign at Madison’s Henry Vilas Zoo by conducting a mini training camp led by Green Bay’s Donald Driver and Edgar Bennett. Each participant will “work out” with the pros for a few minutes in exchange for player photo cards, and 10 lucky kids will win a regulation football personally autographed by each player (please note, this event is not an autograph-signing). Get out and join us for some outdoor summer fun!


Request your new Summer/Fall Passport!
The new Passport cycle begins in July. Request one now and we'll send it to you when it's available.


What is a Passport?
With their passport, kids 12 and under can earn stamps for participating in everyday activities and special events to qualify for cool prizes like bikes and family vacations! Life is better when you get out and live. We just thought we'd make it even more rewarding.

Why Get Out?
As a local, community-based health care organization, Physicians Plus is committed to improving the long-term health of our community. And encouraging our children to lead active lifestyles is one of the most important ways we can do this because inactivity is a leading cause of childhood overweight and obesity.
  • The prevalence of childhood overweight and obesity has more than tripled in the last 20 years, with now approximately 30% of children overweight and 15% obese.
  • Overweight children with at least one overweight or obese parent are reported to have a 79% likelihood of overweight persisting into adulthood.
  • And more than 30 medical conditions are associated with obesity, having a health care cost in the U.S. estimated to be $102.2 billion.
The Department of Health and Human Services recommends that children and adolescents participate in at least 60 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity most days of the week, preferably daily.
