In January Let’s Focus on Vision & Eye Health
In January, the Wellness Committee would like you to focus on vision and eye health—because caring for your eyes goes beyond your annual eye exam. Supporting healthy vision also means paying attention to your diet, staying active, quitting smoking, protecting your eyes from harmful light, and practicing good eye hygiene.
January’s Giveaway
To support your eye health goals, we’re giving away warming eye masks and eyeglass cleaning kits.
- Eyeglass cleaning kits help keep lenses clear, supporting comfortable vision and reducing eye strain as we start the new year!
Take a moment this January to give your eyes the care they deserve! Hurry to submit your claim—quantities are limited to 50 of each..
The Currituck Walking Club is taking a winter break!
With colder weather setting in, our weekly walks are suspended until spring. We look forward to seeing you in 2026 for the return of Walking Wednesdays!
When we resume, we’ll meet every Wednesday at 5:15 p.m. in the Extension parking lot for a fun, brisk evening walk under the lights (weather permitting).
No sign-up required—just bring your sneakers, a smile, and a friend if you’d like. All ages and fitness levels are welcome. It’s a great way to stay active, connect with fellow employees, and enjoy time outdoors!
For more information, contact Stacey Smith at 252-232-6027 or by email.
