WALK ACROSS WILLIAMSON
WINNERS
ANNOUNCED
|
Walkers wave as they
participate in the WxW celebration on April 18. |
During the months of February and March, 18
Williamson County Schools participated in an
activity contest associated with Walk Across
Williamson. The contest was sponsored by the office
of Coordinated School Health.
Schools were given the opportunity to develop
activity groups with a minimum of 12 members.
The goal was to complete a minimum of
6,000 minutes of activity over the two
months. Each school far exceeded this goal, logging
a total of
1,826,841
minutes of activity. That's almost three times more
than last year. |
|
These schools also competed for mini CSH grants.
Top awards were determined based on total number of
activity minutes submitted for the top ten
finishers. Those who met the minimum requirements
were rewarded with $100 participation awards. These
grants will be used to support the Coordinated
School Health initiative within each respective
school.
The winners were announced at the W x W celebration
walk on Saturday, April 18. The emcee was
Laura Faber, former Fox 17 news anchor. The
Saturday event included local vendors and prizes.
The entire group also participated in a special walk
to celebrate the value of physical activity. |
