Days Inn partners with ParticipACTION to promote physical activity
March 13 2018 - 8:00AM
Days Inns - Canada today announced its partnership with
ParticipACTION, a national non-profit organization whose mission is
to help Canadians sit less and move more. Originally established in
1971, ParticipACTION works with its partners to make physical
activity a vital part of everyday life.
“At Days Inns - Canada, we’re committed to making it easier for
guests to incorporate healthy living practices while on the road,”
said Irwin Prince, President & COO, Realstar Hospitality. “With
life’s busy schedules, it can be challenging to incorporate
physical activity in our daily routine. Together with our hotels,
we will provide our guests with helpful ways to be more active
wherever you are.” The partnership will see Days Inn locations
across the country communicate the value of physical activity
through onsite collateral, events and contesting. Days Inns -
Canada will also support the distribution of The ParticipACTION
Report Card on Physical Activity for Children and Youth, the most
comprehensive assessment of child and youth physical activity in
Canada. As an official hotel partner, Days Inn locations will have
this summer’s 2018 Report Card and other practical tools available
to hotel guests.
“ParticipACTION is excited to welcome Days Inns in Canada as
official hotel partners of our organization. Promoting the value of
physical activity while providing hotel guests with opportunities
to be active will go a long way towards making Canada a more active
place” says Elio Antunes, President and CEO of ParticipACTION.
