The National Foundation for Governors’ Fitness Councils has selected North Dakota for its 2022 DON’T QUIT! campaign, Gov. Doug Burgum announced Thursday. 

The foundation will deliver a state-of-the-art fitness center to three elementary or middle schools in North Dakota. Nominations will be accepted until March 16. Applications are at http://natgovfit.org/nominate-your-school/.

“The health and well-being of North Dakotans is a top priority of our administration,” Burgum said. “Getting kids interested in fitness and good nutrition at an early age will yield benefits well into the future.”
