Zaineb

Today we helped out at a lively field day at Samuel Adams elementary school in East Boston complete with tug-of-war and water balloon tosses in beautiful Piers Park. The highlight was talking to Zaineb, the Ultimate D2F Champion at Samuel Adams. First I asked her what kind of name Zaineb was because I thought it was so beautiful and unusual (at least to me). She sweetly informed me that it's Moroccan. As I was giving her the fancy certificate and pair of Boston Museum of Science passes that comes with the honor of having participated every single possible month and earning the most points in her school, I asked her what she liked about the Drive 2 Fitness. "Well, before I would just go home and eat something in front of the TV and this sort of gives me a schedule." She went on, "when you first came I didn't really want to do it, but my mom said I should try but now I really like it!" As she left the field day, I watched as she excitedly showed off her certificate and pointed to the two Museum of Science passes with a huge smile on her face.
