by Erin Gallagher

The Cartoon Network is on tour, and coming to Joliet Slammers Stadium Sunday.

Called the Move It Movement, the network offers high-energy activities to get kids to stay active. It will be held from Noon to 4 p.m. according to the www.jolietslammers.com.

Activities will include a Cartoon Network obstacle course, NBA/WNBA Fit & NBA hoop troop, PGA of America driving range, NFL Play 60, and a Soccer shootout challenge.

Kids will run the bases and get team autographs, according to the site. 

"Check out the action! It's time to join the Move It Movement!," said the Cartoon Network. "Cartoon Network is goal-kicking, half-piping and 3-pointing its way into your town with a tour full of high energy activities that will totally challenge your skills. Now, let's get moving!"

This is sponsored locally by the Heritage Corridor in partnership with national sponsors. It will be held at Silver Cross Field, 1 Mayor Art Schultz Drive in Joliet.
