The Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation is encouraging all Tennesseans to observe National Drinking Water Week, May 5-10. Tennesseans can do their part in promoting good stewardship of the state's water supply by helping protect our source waters from pollution, practicing water conservation, actively supporting the upkeep of drinking water infrastructure and becoming involved in local water issues. In addition to celebrating National Drinking Water Week, this year marks the 39th anniversary of the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). Coupled with the requirements of the Clean Water Act and state regulations, the Safe Drinking Water Act helps form the core of our national and state efforts to provide quality drinking water and protect the health of our citizens.
A group led by Nick Reed of Crossville has been training in doors at the Cumberland Medical Center Wellness Complex during the winter, but now that spring is here, they are taking their exercise outdoors to Centennial Park on good weather days. It's just in time to observe National Physical Fitness and Sports Month during May, which is also recognized as National Employee Health and Fitness Month. Other Cumberland County residents, who believe in the value of exercise like they do, are invited to join them. There is still room for another six to ten participants, Reed said. The group meets 5 days a week at 6 a.m. each morning.
