Active Kids Indiana
IYI is pulling together a statewide list of youth organizations to help parents connect 
their kids to cool programs. Parents will be able to find programs by location, age of 
child, seasonality, gender, and program offerings. The Active Kids Indiana Web site is 
scheduled to officially launch in Spring 2008.  But you can test our progress by going to 
www.activekidsindiana.org. 

Be sure to check back often, as we are adding new organizations every day!  
Youth organizations that want to be included can fax in this completed form.
