Questions and Answers

Feel free to use the contact form on this web site to ask any questions pertaining to the Fitness Pen Pal program. One of the major questions I receive is from teachers or parents who ask me to find them a participating school or family to join them in this program. As much as I would love to help with this, it is recommended that you create the partnership on your own. Please visit the information page to learn ways of finding a partner in The Fitness Pen Pal program.

• Q. I am a PE teacher and would like to implement this program. Do I need to be concerned with spelling and grammar of each letter?
