Father's Day Tailgate Party

Our first annual Father's Day Tailgate Party was a success! Co-Hosted by Kona Dads, Hawaii Action Academy, and Aloha Bounce Co., over 40 families participated in a ninja obstacle course, Portuguese Horseshoe tournament, fitness testing with trainers Wanda and Mary, barbequing and prize giveaway. They bounced, swung, leapt, dove, surfed and climbed through a fun afternoon, with the Grand Prize winner of a new gas barbeque going to father of two, Nick Posey provided by the Fatherhood Initiative.

 
 


We decided to put this event together to follow up with our annual Mother's Day Makeover Giveaway which we have hosted for the past three years, and which has been quite the hit with the moms in our community. We thought it would be fun to host a more casual father's day event as well, to compliment the fact that we now have a coed facility where dads can get in shape too. We were super excited when Hawaii Action Academy agreed to co-host, using their location for the event. Kona Dads and the Fatherhood Initiative stepped up to provide the food, horseshoe event and some of the prizes.

Thank you to everyone who came out to support the event and to our sponsors, Kona Renewal Massage, Hawaii Forest and Trail, Polynesian Paddling Products, Lynn with Mary Kay Cosmetics, Head to Sole Massage, and the volunteers who helped make the event a success.

It was a busy month for us at Trunk Trainers! We are so proud to announce that we are the  latest official  Blue Zones Project Participating Organization in the state of Hawaii!

It examines the habits and environments of centenarians  found in high concentrations in certain  regions of the world. These areas were dubbed Blue Zones after the map Dan was tracking 100 plus year olds on with a blue pen became saturated with blue ink in some areas. The Project strives to replicate patterns from those areas to create a place where living longer while enjoying good health happens naturally. Buettner found there were similarities in the behaviors of the centenarians in the Blue Zones of Okinawa, Japan, Ikaria, Greece, Sardinia, Spain, Nicoya, Costa Rica and Loma Linda, California, like moving naturally, connecting with others, having a purpo
