The 8-week challenge encouraged employees to get active and lose weight. Over 400 county employees participated and lost a combined total of 1,392 pounds while logging 1,199,258 minutes of physical activity!

Winning teams in two categories, Total Weight Loss and Activity Time Logged, took home Fitbits. Team Mission Slimpossible won the Weight Loss category with 102 pounds lost! The Activity Time Logged winning team was Team Good Fellas who logged 27,931 minutes!

County Judge Bob Hebert said, “I commend the winners for their effort. The health benefits for all participants in these friendly challenges far outweigh the recognition given the winners, but the competition makes it fun.”
