Join us for a family winter wellness challenge from January 9-April 6, 2023!
The family winter wellness challenge is a 12-week challenge to help your family to increase movement, encourage healthy eating, and incorporate other wellness practices into your daily life. Building healthy habits as a family, including with children in the household, can help create a lifetime of healthy habits for everyone.
Each week our staff will send out a short weekly newsletter with information on the week’s topic, share a video of a healthy recipe, and set a weekly challenge to improve eating or physical activity habits. We will encourage physical activity throughout the challenge with a gift of a pedometer to each person in the family and physical activity tracking throughout the 12 weeks.
Members will be invited to a private Facebook group to encourage accountability, and two-way conversation and help improve a sense of community during this challenge. We are all working together!
It’s a 12-week commitment that is free to you! This challenge is for everyone of all ages, we want your family and children to join the challenge with you to all work together to work toward building healthy habits.
Each person will get a pedometer to help track steps and encourage physical activity. We will post videos with exercise ideas and recipes to give some easy and simple ideas for your family.
If you have any questions, call the health department at 660-395-4711 and ask to speak with Erin or Stacy.
