A telephone survey will be conducted to assess the health and fitness of residents in Quesnel.
The survey, to be conducted from Aug. 6 to 22, will seek answers on physical activity during the previous week, both recreation and work related.
The work is being conducted on behalf of the town's Active Communities committee, part of a provincial government initiative to increase the physical activity rates of British Columbians by 20 per cent by the year 2010.
A similar survey conducted in Prince George last year found that about 60 per cent of those surveyed walk as a form of physical activity while 26 per cent do vigorous activity like in a gym and 29 per cent do moderate exercise like golf or tennis.
But it also indicated that more than 25 per cent of Prince George residents eat unhealthily seven days a week.
