GOLDEN VALLEY, Minn. — The American Heart Association is on a mission to reduce sugary drink consumption in Minnesota children and teens. The AHA has launched a new, local campaign, “WATER: the original sports drink” which seeks to educate and change the policies of local community youth sporting associations to encourage the consumption of water.
There are free resources to help local sporting associations and clubs to educate the parents and kids they serve on how to drink more water and less sugary drinks – including information for their website and policy manuals, posters, stickers, buttons and more.
