Bengal Wellness Challenge: July 3-August 7

The Institute for Community Health Promotion, the Weigel Wellness Center, and the Employee Assistance Program have teamed up to kick-start a walking club for the Buffalo State community. Walking a half hour a day, combined with eating plenty of fruits and vegetables, can help lower your cholesterol, blood pressure, and risk for chronic disease. Join us for some fresh air, a bit of nature, and invigorating exercise as we walk around either Hoyt Lake or the History Museum three days a week for six weeks.

Beginning tomorrow, July 3, we will meet at noon at the corner of Elmwood Avenue and Rockwell Road for a 30- or 40-minute walk. We will meet in the same place at the same time every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday through Wednesday, August 7. Those who are interested may have the Weigel Wellness Center measure their weight and blood pressure before our walk on July 3 and then again after the challenge ends on August 7. Free EAP water bottles will be handed out at the first walk, while supplies last. A limited supply of healthful, properly portioned take-out lunches will be provided for $5 at the Bengal Kitchen and can be picked up after the walk. Please contact Michelle Lockett, project coordinator with the Center for Health and Social Research, with questions.
