Way to go Ottawa Recreation Commission and Live Healthy - Franklin County!

The Ottawa Recreation Commission (ORC), in partnership with Live Healthy Franklin County, has been awarded a $25,000 Blue Cross and Blue Shield Pathways to a Healthier Kansas grant to develop a new youth physical activity program serving children throughout Franklin County.

The program will expand opportunities for youth to participate in individual sports and physical activities, recognizing that traditional team sports aren't the right fit for every child. By providing access to equipment, resources, and new experiences, the ORC hopes to help more young people discover activities they enjoy while building healthy, active lifestyles.

Thanks to this grant, the program will be offered at no cost to participants, removing financial barriers and making physical activity more accessible to youth across Franklin County. The program is currently in development, with a planned launch in the spring and summer of 2027.

The ORC is grateful to Live Healthy Franklin County and Blue Cross and Blue Shield for their investment in our community's youth. This support will help create new opportunities for children to stay active, explore individual sports, and develop healthy habits that can last a lifetime.

Thank you to the ASPCA and for providing the supplies!

This is a drive-through, first come first serve event.

☑️Stay in your car until it is your turn to be served at Prairie Paws's mobile vet clinic.
☑️Keep in mind that arriving before 9am can make it hard for us to get set up and can extend your wait time.
☑️Medical records are delivered electronically after the clinic and can take up to 7 days to be generated. Email addresses are required.
☑️Cats must be in carriers and dogs must be on leashes, if you need to borrow a cat carrier you can do so at Prairie Paws any time during our open hours.
☑️You do not have to live in Franklin County to participate, this event is open to everyone.
☑️ The bundle includes a microchip, rabies vaccine for pets over 3mo of age, FVRCP for cats, DAPPV for dogs.
☑️There is no appointment needed, join the line between 9am and 11am to be served.
☑️While this clinic doesn't verify residency or financial status, if these services are affordable to you at your regular veterinarian, we ask that you continue to support those businesses so that we can focus our resources on pets that would otherwise go unvaccinated.
