• Summertime STEPS continues

This challenge continues through August 31 and is great for faculty and staff members who are interested in counting their steps. Participants can use their own pedometers or request one through Health and Wellness; each time 10,000 steps is reached, participants log it on a punch card. Complete punch cards can be sent to Human Resources (Lake Michigan Hall, room 140) to be entered for monthly prizes.

Participants can join anytime through the challenge. Click here for more information.
