Bring the kids too! The National Harbor is the future home of The state-of-the-art National Children's Museum, which will serve as a multifaceted facility for nearly 1 million children living in the national capital area, as well as the children of the world. This museum is expected to attract five and a half million visitors with children each year. Taylor said “he envisions this museum inspiring children to dream, explore myriad cultures, learn about holistic health practices, using environmental nurturing as a means to foster health and ways to improve our world.” This event will benefit many--many-- many people through the efforts and commitments of the Vibrant Health and Wellness Foundation --Whose mission is to improve the health and wellness of the people of Maryland, and the Washington DC metropolitan area by serving as an advocate for health-fitness promotion, wellness education and disease prevention. Taylor said he is looking to support and strengthen by collaboration organizations that seek to improve the health of underserved populations. Leadership, disease prevention, and health promotion initiatives are the catalyst for reducing health care cost while keeping our children and families healthy. Taylor said he is pleased to announce that Josh Basile of Determined2Heal will serve as his guest speaker and motivator for change in spite of adversity. Riverfront Revolution’s underpinning serves to re-enforce healthy lifestyle while reducing the potential for healthcare cost becoming a major unbearable burden for our communities and America if not brought under control. “We are very excited to host the Riverfront Revolution in our nation’s capital. We want to promote the message that health and fitness can be fun, exciting, and family friendly. There is something for everyone to enjoy,” adds Taylor. This event’s location at the new National Harbor makes the Riverfront Revolution a much-anticipated event. Located on 300 acres of spectacular real estate along the scenic Potomac River in Prince George's County, MD, National Harbor is the new gateway to the National Capital Region. “We envision this event serving as a Mecca for launching the President’s Health Care Reform initiative. Every American should have the opportunity to live healthy and disease free,” says Taylor. Join us at the Riverfront Revolution event and witness the eagles soar while observing the Awakening statue rise to witness change in the making…transforming the banks of the Potomac into a new Gateway for improving the health of our nation. www.riverfrontrevolution.comTags: |
