The Olympics are coming to Parkinson’s Pointe! In celebration of the Winter Olympics in Italy, Parkinson’s Pointe will be taking on an Olympic- themed member challenge this February. Will you be cheering for Team Red, Team White or Team Blue? Just like in the Olympics, some sports are team sports and some are individual – so we will compete in both! Members will earn points for their team through attendance and challenges that encourage them to get to know their teammates. Individuals can also earn prizes for their hard work regardless of which team they are on.
When Is The Challenge:
Sign up for the challenge before Friday, February 6th. The challenge will run from Monday, February 9th through Friday, March 6th. Winners will be announced the following week.
How To Sign Up:
Members will sign up by Friday, Feb 6th either on our website or using signups around the facility. Over the weekend, they will be assigned a team. When you come to class starting Monday morning on Feb 9th, the teams will be posted and you’ll be given a wrist band to match your team color. Through the rosters and the wristbands, you’ll be able to see your new teammates and encourage them to come to class with you! Wear those wristbands with pride over the 4-week challenge!
You will need to sign up to participate, so sign up HERE or ask your instructor how to help!
How To Earn Points:
Points are earned by the team when members of that team show up to class! It’s that simple!
1pt for each member attending an exercise class
2pts for each member attending an education session
2pts for each member attending Coffee and Connect
2 pts for completing a “Get To Know Your Teammates” survey and handing it to an instructor – each team member can earn this once a week
2 BONUS pts for the team if 3 or more team members are present at any one class, session or coffee – get those teammates to come with you!
Points will be determined based on the attendance collected in Wellness Living. You don’t need to do anything except sign up and show up! If you need help signing up in advance for classes, our instructors are happy to help. Each week will have a winning team announced at the facility and then the attendance will reset. Every week is a new opportunity to win for your team! The overall winner will be decided by the team that wins the most weeks.
Points for individuals are earned in a similar way.
- 1pt for attending an exercise class
- 2pts for attending an education session
- 2 pts for attending Coffee and Connect
Each week will have an individual winner and attendance will reset, but the overall winners will be cumulative for the four weeks.
What Can We Win:
The winning team will receive an inaugural Parkinson’s Pointe t-shirt!
The top 3 individuals will receive a Parkinson’s Pointe hat! Weekly individual winners can also choose a prize from our prize box.
