Meet Pat Gagan, Community Captain of the Month for September. Pat recently moved to the area and has been very active in the outdoors all of his life. When he moved here he was struck by the natural beauty and opportunities to be physically active in the outdoors. Pat says he “loves what being active can do for your life”.
Pat loves to see people get outside and be active so he joined Active SWV’s Community Captain team. He says, “Fitness is fun and not everyone knows that”. He wants to help instill this value in the younger generations to carry with them throughout their lives. Pat also says “You don’t have to run a marathon, you can just take a stroll, fitness can be fun if you just give it a try.”
You can get out for some of that good fun exercise with Pat and Active Southern West Virginia on two different bike rides in September. Pat is leading both programs on the Rend Trail on September 8th at 2pm and the 10th at 5:30pm.
