How does your organization demonstrate public service and/ or urban governance?
FitPHX demonstrates public service in countless ways. The whole point of FitPHX is to serve the public. To make Phoenix a healthier place. They have and are enhancing some of the parks to include walking routes and mileage markers to encourage exercise. They educate and provide healthy activities for children at local gymnasiums and after school sites. FitPHX puts on a free walk every Monday night downtown that encourages exercise and supports local businesses. FitPHX is all about public service and is constantly looking at ways to increase their impact in a positive way for the public.

Good post, I was recenlty involved in some meeting with a partnership with a local city and boys and girls club to build and run a recreation center. Cities should spend more money on these educational programs to keep kids busy and active....especially the ones that have parents that have to work 2 jobs and are not around as much. The long term effect would be that the cities would have to spend less on police services and things of this nature.
