Tested the effectiveness of a community-based intervention designed to promote physical activity among rural fifth graders. Data on students who participated in after-school and summer programs and home, school, and community interventions indicated that the after-school and summer interventions were implemented as planned, but the home, school, and community interventions were not. Overall, the intervention did not significantly impact students' physical activity levels. (SM)
