The province is putting a focus on girls and women to keep active.
Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development Peter Fassbender says B.C. encourages all residents to lead a healthy and active lifestyle, but says women have been under served in a lot of these initiatives.
Fassbender says the Girls Go Nordic program is a recent example of how a grant of $1300 has gone towards good for the program in Kamloops that has over 500 members participating.
