Suunto Supports Active, Healthy Kids Through Kidz Passport Program

We are ready for another amazing week at Outdoor Retailer Summer Market 2011, and we're all looking forward to seeing old friends and meeting new faces as we showcase the latest in cutting-edge Suunto products.

In addition to all of the booths, events and special guests, OR hosts dozens of family friendly activities throughout the week, making it easy to bring the kids along with you. We're all for supporting these activities, which is why Suunto is taking part in theGeoPalz Kidz Passport Program.

GeoPalz specializes in colorful, uniquely shaped pedometers designed specifically for kids. In continuation of its ongoing effort to get kids up and active, GeoPalz designed the Kidz Passport Program for kids who will be visiting OR with their families.

Here's how it works: First, families stop by the GeoPalz booth in the New Exhibitor Pavilion (PV#103) and sign their children up for the program. Kids then recieve their own GeoPalz, which allows them to measure the steps they take from booth to booth. They fill out a special "passport" as they go, and when they return the completed passport back to the GeoPalz booth they become eligible for dozens of different prizes -- including some from us at Suunto!

We believe it's important to spark your child's sense of adventure and encourage the exploration of the world around them -- and Outdoor Retailer Summer Market 2011 is a great place to start.
