1. Begin by reading the PT Month 2007 Overview. Decide if and how you want to be involved; this could be just for PT Month, or it could also include phase two, which runs through December, and phase three which runs through January.
2. Print the Cover Letter and use it to share information about “Let’s ALL Get Moving!” with your facility administrator and staff. After you have received any necessary administrative approval, determine the number of participants. Share the Cover Letter with the participants and/or parents. This may also be used for a newsletter article at your facility or local APTA Chapter.
3. Use the Order Form to order your bracelets and charms. Please submit as soon as possible. You must be a member of the APTA to order. There is no charge to Section on Pediatrics members. There is a $10 processing fee for non-Section members
4. If you decide to have a Kick Off event, you may want to use the Fitness PowerPoint . A Bibliography also is available with additional references.
   
5. Print and copy the Fact Sheets and distribute to participants and/or parents.
   Two versions are available:

• Fitness Facts 
• Importance of Physical Activity

7. Help the participants carry out and record their activities as appropriate. At the end of your campaign, copy and give all participants a Certificate

Two Media Templates also are included for your use:

• Media Alert : Use this to inform the media in your area if you are having a Kick Off that you would like the press to cover. Adapt it with your specific information. Fax or e-mail to the media 1 week before your event and the morning of the event.
• News Release : Use this to inform the media of PT Month activities and the role of PT in the prevention of obesity. Adapt it with your specific information. See APTA’s National PT Month Media Relations Timeline for suggestions on distribution
