Congratulations to HBOE on their back-to-back wins for The Patriot Point Challenge 2013. This year we experienced a record-breaking year at the Spirit Scamper, with Hall-Kent winning The Golden Shoe for student participation. Edgewood was the second place Golden Shoe winner for student participation. The end of the year marks the beginning of summer and our continued efforts toward wellness. Take this time to focus on your physical dimension with healthy eating as well as enjoying outside activities for fitness. Wellness also includes the emotional dimension and summer provides the perfect opportunity to relax and get ready for the upcoming school year and a fresh start!
Don't forget about The Movement medal! Anyone who has completed five fitness events qualifies for the big award. (any race can be counted, but the Spirit Scamper MUST be one of the five.) The Movement Medal winners will be recognized at the beginning of our school year. Please email me if you qualify for this award.
Wednesday, June 26th- HHS will host a special event in our Spin room. Robert Montgomery, a local guy with big heart is currently on his bike pedaling across the nation to raise money for http://www.neverthirstwater.org Robert was the gym manager at ITF- Homewood before taking on this mission to raise money for Neverthirst. The Movement will host a Spin honoring Robert and help out his efforts. We need 20 bikers, willing to attend Spin Class. We will "pass the plate" aka the bucket at the end of class asking for any donation toward Neverthirst (nothing to small or to big-any amount is appreciated). Please email me and let me know if you would be willing to pedal on Wednesday, June 26th. The time frame will be 6pm-7pm. During the ride, we will watch video and see pictures of Robert's cross-country journey. He will be somewhere near Jackson Hole, Wyoming on Wednesday of next week and quite possibly will join us via Skype! Don't miss this fun event. We need you!!! 20 bikers, Neverthirst and a lot of fun.
Speaking of the Spin room. If you have any bibs from races or Tshirts from races that you would be willing to donate, please bring them to HHS. I am working on a project to create a "Wall of Fame" in our cardio room. Autograph your bib before you donate. The goal is to provide a space to recognize your efforts toward wellness and to allow our student population to be reminded of employees modeling healthy behaviors.
See you next Wednesday!
