Residents from 43 states participated in the SNY event this year.

The event is free to the public and is regularly lauded by a wide variety of elected officials each year, including partnership with First Lady Michelle Obama’s "Let’s Move" initiative in 2011 and U.S. Representative Dr. Bill Foster in 2017.
