Fit Blue is a program originally designed for people desiring to increase and maintain their physical fitness as it relates to flexibility and strength. It has a complimentary app that can help record fitness levels and improvements. The recommended fitness schedule offered in the program, was followed routinely twice a week for a month where 10-16 people attended each session. Farmer's market tokens were given to those who attended to encourage healthy eating selections at the market. 

An average of 14 attended each session as participants learned to track their heart rates, blood pressure levels, and steps each day. The participants requested more programs and are continuing their pursuit of fitness by signing up for the following month of activities as well as adding other activities to their weekly undertaking.
