Cameron High School Slated for ‘Exergaming’ Facility
From news-register.net:
Several West Virginia entities want to see area students and parents get fit, and a first step toward making that happen has been taken by Marshall County Schools.
After reviewing a proposal submitted Dec. 16, West Virginia School Building Authority Director Mark Manchin approved plans to have a prototype "exergaming facility" constructed at Cameron High School.
The project is a collaborative effort of the West Virginia Public Employees Insurance Agency, the Northern West Virginia Rural Health Education Center, the West Virginia University School of Medicine and Tygart Valley Rehabilitation and Fitness. The approval was given during a meeting Manchin had with representatives from those entities and Marshall County Schools administrators.
