SUBJECT:
Adopt Appropriation Ordinance for Distribution of FitFuture KIDS Fest Sponsorship Funds in Special
Trust Fund
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and
appropriations up to $50,000.00 in the Special Trust fund from received sponsorship funds,
2. Authorize the use of this money in promotion and execution of the FitFuture KIDS Fest; and

DISCUSSION:
FitFuture is an aggressive community-wide effort to stop the epidemic of overweight and obesity in Tarrant
County. The City of Fort Worth Public Health Department's Health Promotion & Education section/staff
were tasked with providing an educational event aimed at children and their families through Contract No.
33063, approved by Council December 20, 2005, (M&C C-21224) between the City of Fort Worth and the
United Way of Metropolitan Tarrant County.
With our FitFuture partners (United Way, Fort Worth Independent School District, Tarrant County Public
Health, City of Fort Worth Parks and Community Services Department, the University of North Texas Health
Science Center and the YMCA), staff are organizing FitFuture KIDS Fest to be held Saturday, November 3,
2007 at Will Rogers Memorial Center in Fort Worth. The working budget for FitFuture KIDS Fest is currently
$35,000; however, the potential sponsorship is estimated to be up to $50,000 with a majority of the budget
being spent on publicity. As the fiscal agent, the Public Health Department is charged with soliciting funds
and sponsorships to pay for this event; this process is ongoing. Funds will be disbursed as received to
purchase needed goods and services for KIDS Fest. The event's costs will not exceed received
donations. It is anticipated that all costs will be incurred by January 30, 2008; however, any unspent funds
should remain in this Special Trust to fund a potential 2008 event.
FitFuture KIDS Fest is a free, fun-filled festival to showcase simple ways families can integrate nutritious
eating and physical activity into their daily lives to reduce overweight and obesity in both children and adult
populations. The 2006 event drew 2,135 participants, more than 100 volunteers and 26 vendors and
provided families the opportunity to:
• participate in healthy cooking demonstrations,
• learn how to grow a healthy vegetable garden,
• sample yoga, fencing, karate, gymnastics, dancing,
• and use technology to make exercise fun and interesting.
