Artemisa, Cuba - Summer activities are planned every July and August by the Sports Department in San Antonio de los Baños. Armando Cárdenas, director of the Sports Department, reported that sports activities are maintained in rural communities, including several Circumscricpiones on the outskirts of Ariguanabo, such as the Acopio and El Paso del Soldado neighborhoods where recreation and sports activities have taken place.

Recreational Sports Festivals are also held at the Parque del Humor, with Physical Education teachers that promote the practice of exercise in children and adolescents. Some sports areas in the Batalla del Jigüe, Rafael Valdés Pérfez and Domingo Lence schools have extended schedules -until night- to practice soccer, basketball, baseball.

On the occasion of the National Rebellion Day, and as part of the summer sports proposals, the 10-kilometer Andarin Carvajal Marathon Race took place where runners from the municipality were recognized in different categories. Athletes from other provinces such as Mayabeque also participated.

This is how summer is lived, from sports practice. Walking, swimming, playing baseball and soccer, bio-healthy gyms and aerobic exercise are other options for healthy recreation, despite the intense hot.
