Bloomington Class Obsessed With Healthy Living

Last updated on Tuesday, March 27, 2007

(BLOOMINGTON) - A Bloomington elementary school class which has become obsessed with healthy living is being rewarded for its efforts.

Students in Sue Lessig's class at Templeton Elementary will receive a five-thousand dollar check from television network Nickelodeon as winners of the channel's "Let's Just Play" giveaway.

Lessig's class developed a program called "Energy in, Energy out," in which students pay attention to what they eat, exercise twice a week at the YMCA and even play games which are conducive to fitness.

The students hope to use the money to purchase a "Dance Dance Revolution" video game console, on which players dance to earn higher scores.
