Prepare for the season with no-cost EKG screenings for student athletes and active youth. Beginning with the 2026-27 school year, Florida’s Second Chance Act requires first-time incoming high school athletes to have a cleared electrocardiogram before tryouts, practices, or interscholastic competition. Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital, in collaboration with Who We Play For, offers EKG and ECG screenings for children and young adults ages 10 to 21 at no charge to families. Online registration is required and includes access to current dates and locations, with options in Hollywood, Miramar, Coral Springs, and Wellington. An electrocardiogram is a quick and painless test that records the heart’s electrical activity and can help detect certain conditions before symptoms appear. Before the appointment, complete the required online consent form and avoid exercise for at least 20 minutes. A pediatrician’s signature is not needed.

A playful beachside trail adventure unfolds at the Harry Berry Park parking area, led by hares I-10 and Lazy Lay and marked by a trusty beer flag. The vibe is casual and spirited, blending tailgating with light jogging or confident strolling, plenty of dog energy, and optional swims to nearby reefs. It is BYOB, friendly to dogs and kids, and snack sharing is encouraged, with some cash handy for bar stops. Groups are welcome, including that wildcard friend who keeps things lively. After the trail, the fun continues with a swim out to new nearshore reef installations at about ten feet of depth, then a relaxed crawl along the Broadwalk as the day winds down. Simple water gear like a mask, snorkel, a float, and fins is recommended, along with reef-safe sunscreen. Everyone is responsible for their own safety. Hash, then splash, then crawl, and savor a day built for nonsense and good company.
