At the core of the Seattle Storm is the promotion of an active and healthy lifestyle. Kaiser Permanente also believes in helping everyone to be their healthiest. That’s why the Storm and Kaiser Permanente have joined forces to activate StormFit. This fitness program for kids and teens develops lifelong fans of the game of basketball — and good health — through on-court camps, clinics, and open community practices.

This year, the StormFit Basketball Camp took place from Tuesday, August 14 through Friday, August 17 at Hidden Valley Field House in Bellevue. 110 boys and girls participated and worked on improving their basketball skills.
