Breathe Pennsylvania’s Asthma Day

August 3, 2017
10:15 a.m. to 1 p.m
Kennywood Park

Children with asthma want to have fun, and they are looking to understand their asthma in ways that don't separate them from their peers. Rather than keeping children with asthma away from activities, Breathe Pennsylvania's goal is to put an emphasis on education and recreation, which encourages children to explore activities that they can take part in.

Fourth through sixth-graders with asthma, along with their parents or caregivers, are invited to meet with professionals, learn about asthma and ask questions. The $20 registration fee includes tickets to Kennywood for each child with asthma and two guests, lunch and fun. To register, click here. For more information, call 724.772.1750.
