All students, faculty and staff are invited to participate in Health and Wellness Services annual walking program. Our 2010 program, "Step It Up: TRIPS - Be the Change," will begin February 15th. During our journey we will be partnering with TRIPS and learning about their mission and experience.

The "Be the Change" component of the walking program gives teams the opportunity to provide service to a needy charity or organization of their choice. More information about these opportunities to come.

Our goal, as a five member team, is to encourage each individual to walk approximately 9,700 steps a day.  The estimate is that 2,000 steps equals 1 mile. You will surely  enjoy the camaraderie  that comes with being an active team member.  Your team will be asked to decide on a team name and have one member designated as the captain.

Geocaching will be offered as way  for group participation to achieve the daily step goal. We have also had weekly incentive prizes for the team walking the most steps that particular week. At the end of the journey will have had a themed luncheon, which has brought all the teams together for a rousing celebration.
