September’s Employee Wellness Activities
STEP-tember Challenge
What better way to welcome cooler weather than some “walks in the park” and once you’ve practiced and perfected your “walk in the park” put it to the test at our “RACE ON THE RUNWAY” held as part of the Planes and Plows event on Saturday, October 5, 2024.
Our walking event begins Tuesday, September 3 and ends on Friday, October 4, 2024.
Tips to help you enjoy your walk:

- Give yourself a fitness challenge.
- Identify items in nature. Leaves, insects or animals.
- Play a game.
- Geocaching – an outdoor treasure hunting game.
- Listen to music.
- Listen to audio book. Our library has a great selection.
