Ken-Ton Acquires Blender Bike to Inspire Healthy Habits
The Ken-Ton School District Food Service Department, under the direction of Director Kim Roll, has acquired a new piece of equipment to inspire healthier habits among students and staff: a blender bike!
The blender bike is a stationary bicycle which powers a blender. In early February, the Food Service staff tested the bike out and made healthy and delicious smoothies with vanilla yogurt, low fat milk, and fresh fruit for administrative building staff.
The department’s plan is to enhance wellness initiatives by deploying the blender bike at schools and events throughout the district to promote an active lifestyle and healthy options. The bike first visited Hoover Elementary during the week of February 13th where classes are taking turns powering the bike and making smoothies to enjoy!
