The Get Active campaign is a part of the Communities Putting Prevention to Work program, funded by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The Get Active initiative is coordinating a county-wide wellness challenge, and all Wood County businesses, organizations and community members are invited to participate.
The challenge will begin Monday and run through July 24. Consider forming a team of family, friends or co-workers or participating on your own to challenge yourself to make healthy choices. If on a team, you only can have a total of five members. If there are more than five, please form another team. This challenge will focus on three aspects of your health: physical, social and mental. We encourage a team-centered approach, which will help motivate and keep team members accountable.
Prizes will be awarded at the conclusion of the challenge. There's no better time than now. Let's Get Active Wood County. If you, your business or organization is interested in signing up or for more information, call Kayleen Magruder, 715-221-8474 or email magruder.kayleen@marshfieldclinic.org.
