Outdoors RX
project of  Appalachian Mountain Club 

A new AMC program, developed in collaboration with MassGeneral Hospital for Children, is providing kids in the pilot communities of Waltham and Framingham with a prescription for physical activity outdoors.

Through their website, OutdoorsRX.org, families can connect to local activities that get their kids off the couch and outside.  

Children participating in the program are awarded points—redeemable for prizes—as they keep track of their outdoor activities. In addition, AMC is offering a free stay at its Ponkapoag Camp in Randolph, Mass., for participants who earn a certain number of points.

There is a ton of stuff being offered in Framingham.  The following is only a small sample. Visit the OutdoorsRX website to browse through all the activities and to register your family.
