Wellington Residents Get Active Through Let’s Move Initiative
 

This March, the Village will be participating in the sixth annual “Let’s Move: Commit to Change Physical Activity Challenge.” The challenge is a county-wide initiative focused on physical activity, nutrition, and health. It will take place from March 1 to March 31, 2018 and asks participants to log at least 30 minutes of physical activity every day. 

Wellington has created its own team, “Well Wellington,” and urges residents, Village employees, local after-school programs, and sports teams to join and log their minutes.  Residents may register by visiting LetsMovePBC.org. Participation is FREE and open to all.
 
On Saturday, March 3, 2018 Wellington, in partnership with Ultima Fitness, the Mall at Wellington Green, and the Palm Healthcare Foundation, will kick off the campaign at the Mall at Wellington Green. Starting at 8:00 AM, instructors from Ultima Fitness will be leading warm-up stretches at the Live360 Studio located in the Nordstrom Court on the lower level before a communal “mall walk.” Let’s Move Campaign tee shirts will be provided to attendees on a first come, first served basis while supplies last and there will be information available on how to stay active and healthy throughout the year including materials on Wellington’s vast selection of recreational programming.
 
As another way to stay informed on the latest news and updates from the Village, residents are invited to sign up for Wellington information and updates at www.wellingtonfl.gov/enews.
