RECenter Aquatics Partnership Aims to Prevent Type 2 Diabetes

RECenter Aquatics Partnership Aims to Prevent Type 2 Diabetes

Oak Marr RECenter is joining with the First Baptist Church of Vienna (FBCV) to encourage people to change their lifestyle to prevent or delay type 2 diabetes and other serious health problems. The initiative to improve overall health is part of the Southeast Diabetes Faith Initiative (SDFI) Program, a five-state faith-based project designed to expand access and utilization of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Prevent T2 lifestyle change program.

On Friday, August 17, 2018, program participants, family and friends took the plunge at Oak Marr RECenter by participating in a 55-minute low-impact water aerobics class led by CDC-trained lifestyle coach and certified water instructor Robin Williams.
