Harrod Area FCS Agents demonstrate a balancing exercise with the Move Your Way with Bingocize program.The Fort Harrod Area Family and Consumer Sciences Extension Agents successfully implemented the Move Your Way with Bingocize program, a unique blend of physical activity education, Bingocize® exercises, and the classic game of bingo.
