This year, radio calisthenics, which involves taking in a deep breath of the refreshing morning air, was carried out for 88 days (2 months and 27 days) from Monday, June 12th to Friday, September 8th.
This year, 68 registered participants gathered at the square in front of the Hokuryu Town Community Center at 6:30 a.m. every morning for the radio calisthenics event sponsored by the Hokuryu Town Board of Education, and got their bodies moving energetically.
Be cheerful under the blue sky!
Greetings from Mr. Kunimitsu Abe of the Board of Education:
"This year, we had a large number of participants and were able to complete the radio calisthenics exercises without any problems.
By participating in radio calisthenics, you will receive 10 administrative points per day. After the points are tallied, a voucher for the total points will be mailed to you. Please exchange your points at the town hall, the industry department, the resident department, or at the point exchange counter at Himawari University.
Elementary school students who collect three or more points will receive a candy exchange coupon through their school. If you have taken the radio calisthenics card home, please submit it to the Board of Education at a later date.
We will be giving out free gifts (tissues and drinks) to everyone who came today. Thank you for coming to our refreshing radio exercises this year!
Tissues and drinks will be distributed after the event
Many children participated! (Those who earn 3 points or more will receive a coupon for sweets.)
Taking in the sparkling sun, blue sky, and sacred air of the shrine forest, I do morning radio exercises that move my entire body in a balanced way, with boundless love, gratitude, and prayer...
