Approximately 600 people filled the Northfield Middle School auditorium to hear Dan’s dynamic Blue Zones® presentation, which was informative, entertaining and inspiring. Thank you to our speakers, Board members and volunteers for ensuring the event ran smoothly. Thank you, also, to the following organizations and individuals for their support:

And, thank you to everyone who filled out the Blue Zones® Survey. Our initial review indicates 75 percent of respondents marked Strongly Agree to the statement: Northfield would benefit from becoming a Blue Zones Community. More discussion on this topic will be forthcoming.
