Olympic Fun Day Is Saturday, July 28

Biondi and Coughlan, Lamorinda has sent its own off to grab for the Olympic rings -- and they've made us all proud.

Which is why we're joining with First Lady Michelle Obama for Olympic Fun Day. The first lady is leading the U.S. Olympic delegation at the Summer Games opening ceremonies in London on Friday July 27. Her fitness initiative, Let’s Move, and Patch are teaming up to bring Olympic sports to life for you and your family in your town. Here's how:

1. If you (or anyone you know) are interested in trying an Olympic sport, check out Partnership for a Healthier America’s website, where you can track down professionals who offer instruction in your region in everything from swimming to cycling to track and field.

2. You can find local Olympic Fun Day events on the First Lady’s Let’s Move website, which right now has a great page about how to set up your own local Olympics, full of fun and fresh air!

3. Check out our Directory and Events Calendar - we have listings for places that teach everything from karate to weight training. In our calendar of events, you can find day camps where you could learn archery or play soccer. Or if you are looking for a great venue to watch events that are more fun with a crowd, check out our listing of great local sports bars.

And don't forget to go for the gold!
