Take the FitArlington Health & Wealth Challenge! February 24 - March 22
Ate too much? Spent too much? That’s the sobering realization for many after the holiday cheer. But thanks to the inventive nature of Virginia Cooperative Extension you can get back on track.
Get a group of friends together to incorporate a variety of fiscally and physically responsible behaviors into your life. For every good deed you do, you and your team will earn points. And the Arlington teams with the most points are eligible to win prizes, recognition and a healthier and wealthier New Year.
The Challenge is Over... Time to Celebrate!
The FitArlington Health & Wealth Challenge celebration event will take place on April 23, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at The Energy Club, 2900 S Quincy Street in Shirlington!!
Prizes will be awarded and teams will be honored for their hard work. Healthy snacks will be provided.
At 7:00 Arlington County Board Chair Walter Tejada will present awards to the winning teams. We will have something for every team member who comes!
