Wow! It's all about the Let's Move California Fitness Feria

Hey everyone! Mumtaz Marketing & Events had the privledge of working the official launch of the Let's Move California campaign in conjunction with the Fitness Feria & the FAME Foundation. It was a fun filled day of activities for the local community from climbing a rock wall provided by the U.S. Army, Wolfgang Puck, White House Chef Sam Kass, Latino favorite Ingrid Hoffman giving healthy cooking demonstrations, Rugby, Basketball, Tennis, Cheer, Cycling, Taek Won Do interactive stations, Early Childhood focused activities, L.A.

Hundreds of soccer and basketballs were given to those that completed their event passports!
Watching kids tumble for the first time was exciting... Especially watching their eyes light up as they realized they could roll or do a front roll.
