Whether it’s a morning walk or run, reading a book, doing a crossword puzzle, taking a fitness class, working in the garden, playing a sport, or sharing a meal with family or friends, every minute counts.

Simply log your minutes between September 13 and December 5 by using this Google Form. And be sure to join us for the kickoff event in Memorial Park at Van Neste Square on September 13.
