At Ottawa high School there are many clubs, one of which is called Healthy Pep  Club. But what exactly is healthy Pep Club all about? It is a club that is designed for students to choose a more healthy life style and learn the importance of being healthy.

“Although the club is small, it is having somewhat of an impact on the school,” said Cherry Coen.

“It is making students think about the choices they make and how those choices relate to their health.”

This year is bound to be different though.

“I want Healthy Pep Club to make a greater difference in our school. My classes are going to be doing community service to see how important health is and I have some other ideas I will be exploring later in the school year,” Coen said.

Promoting good health and well being is the main focus of the club.

“Peers encouraging peers is what ‘pep’ stands for right? Well, Healthy Pep Club is all about peers encouraging their peers to eat healthy and to choose a healthy life style,” Coen said.

Healthy Pep Club is an up and coming club at OHS to ensure that students have a seed planted inside their minds and focusing on the idea that being healthy is important.
