Don’T Paint Us All With Same Brush

Editor:

Hey, what’s with all the doom and gloom in the recent article entitled “County in poor health” where it says Gila County is ranked as the unhealthiest in the state. Really?

You talkin’ to me?

Well those researchers certainly haven’t witnessed a Zumba class in this town, or a number of other activities for that matter.

C’mon!

There’s plenty of healthy and positive movement modeled here: hiking, biking, jogging, golf, tennis, etc.

Not everyone in Gila County is unhealthy. So please, don’t paint us like we’re all a bunch of slugs. We’re not! Let’s stand proud for what we do well together! And then maybe we can motivate others to join in.
