Camp Vanguard - [New Window] - With all the pressures today's teenagers have to deal with, it's no wonder so many are in trouble. Add to that an environment where TV, computers and video games have replaced physical activity. Less than half of teens get enough exercise - which means the rest are setting themselves up for a sedentary life and all the problems that come with it.

Now's the time to change these statistics. Research has shown that kids who play sports, or who are physically active, are less likely to have these problems. But getting kids to exercise is no easy task unless you're willing to spend time with them and learn to speak their language.
