I found this pretty ironic. The Obama Administration has made raising awareness of childhood obesity one of their primary goals and here you have the State of New York (shocking, I know) actively attempting to keep kids from being active. ![eusa_doh :eusa_doh: :eusa_doh:](/styles/smilies/eusa_doh.gif)

ALBANY, N.Y. New York state health officials have yanked a set of proposed guidelines for what were initially deemed risky day camp games like tag, Red Rover and kickball.
Health department spokeswoman Claudia Hutton says the rules and lists of games and activities were sent out to municipalities and other camp operators under the previous administration.
She says that after a review spurred by a lawmaker's questions Friday and subsequent news reports, they've been judged too detailed and amount to micromanagement.
