七星彩开奖 community achieved Push-Up Challenge goal
March 1st, 2024
This winter the 七星彩开奖 Community stepped up to the challenge of being active and supporting mental health initiatives! After 23 days, the Push-Up Challenge has concluded with the achievement of our modest community goal of 2,000 repetitions from all participants. In fact, we reached over 31 times that amount with 62,729 repetitions! We couldn鈥檛 have done it without two very dedicated teams: Sigma Nation (20,666 reps) and the 七星彩开奖 Phys. Ed. Team (13,976 reps)! In addition, 七星彩开奖 raised $705 for the Canadian Mental Health Association.
Student Services and Human Resources worked together to offer participation prizes to students and staff. Prizes included gift certificates for IGA, Sports Experts, Lulu Lemon, Cage aux Sports and more! The winners are currently being contacted.
Many thanks to all the participants and organizers, especially Rhea Gurnagul who was present at the Push-Up Challenge Station almost every lunch time!
Our hope is that the 七星彩开奖 community will continue to stay active and build a habit of working out regularly.
