Walk Across Texas is back.  This is an eight-week walking program for teams of eight people.  Team Captains will track the distance walked by each member during the 8 weeks.  Participants can walk/exercise together or on their own and turn in their mileage to the Team Captain each week.  Everything will be posted online so that participants can see how their team is doing compared to other district teams.  The wellness program is providing Free pedometers to the first 400 people that sign up to be on a team. (You must be a District Employee to be on a team.)

The walking program will officially begin on Sunday, January 2nd.  Teams will track miles walked and pounds lost each Sunday through Saturday of the week and turn in their data to the Team Captain for submission.  Miles for the week are submitted by each Wednesday of the following week. The last day to track distance walked is Saturday February 26th.

So get your teams together now (you can keep the same team you had last year).  Team Captains please complete the attached Team Registration form (leave the county extention information blank) and return it to the benefits office no later than Friday December 10th at 4:00 pm.  The registration forms can be sent through an interoffice envelope or faxed to 972.215.5239. 

Team Captain and participant packets will be distributed as soon as the team registration form is received.  Pedometers will be distributed then as well.  All materials are available in Spanish if needed.   

Don’t forget to Name Your Team!!!
