The Corporate Wellness Challenge is a 6-week event that promotes healthy living, employee wellness, teamwork, and of course… a little friendly competition. The Corporate Wellness Challenge is open to employees of any business in the YMCA of Muncie service area, and registration is FREE for current YMCA of Muncie members. For employees who are not members, registration is $20 and includes 6 weeks of free membership (the duration of the Corporate Wellness Challenge) valid at all YMCA of Muncie locations. You can add on to your household for an additional $10 for those 6 weeks, and any adult in your household can participate in the Corporate Wellness Challenge with the employee on their team. Child Watch is available at all locations.
Teams earn points by participating in team events, visiting YMCA of Muncie locations, showing team spirit, implementing worksite wellness themes, and participating in bonus challenges. At the end of the six weeks, the team with the most points will be named the 2020 Corporate Wellness Challenge Champions and take home the Challenge Trophy to be displayed for the entire year!
Registration Deadline
