Welcome Back From Spring Break – Spring Into Wellness Week 3 Begins

March 15, 2021 – Santa Fe College’s annual Spring into Wellness event began on March 1, 2021 and will run for a total of five weeks. All full and part-time employees are eligible to participate in the Spring into Wellness event. This week’s focus will be on Nutritional Wellness and you will have until Monday, March 22, to complete the scheduled activities and submit your confirmation. Below, you will find the list of scheduled activities for Week 3.

More information about the Spring into Wellness event, as well as healthy recipes, new fun fitness ideas, and more, can be found under the Well Santa Fe team on Teams.

WEEK 3: NUTRITIONAL WELLNESS

  1. Nutrition Presentation – Gainesville Health and Wellness will be offering a zoom presentation Tuesday, March 16, at 11 a.m. on Nutrition. You can either watch this presentation live or the recording. 
  2. Get Cooking – Make a healthy recipe using either one of your favorites or a new healthy recipe. You can find recipes on the Well Santa Fe team on Teams.
  3. Check out the EAP – There are several articles on the EAP about nutrition and healthy eating. Log on to the EAP and read an article on one of the below topics.
  4. Download a food tracking app – Download a free food tracker app to help journal your daily meals. Love it, send us a message so that we might share with others.

There is still time to submit your activities for Week 2 and qualify for the weekly drawing. As a reminder, each week participants must choose two activities from the scheduled events as well as perform some type of physical activity.  The physical activity may be walking, participating in a workout video, horseback riding, swimming, gardening, running, lifting weights or any other form of physical activity and will be confirmed via a selfie. For those that are on campus, we have a campus map that shows different paths and their distance that can be found under our Well Santa Fe team on Teams. Please remember, we recommend that you consult your physician or other health care professionals before engaging in or increasing any kind of exercise.

Once you have completed the scheduled events and your physical activity for the week, send your selfie and confirmation of the completed events by email to Human.Resources@sfcollege.edu. Employees who submit confirmation of their participation in two of the week’s events as well as their selfie, will be entered into that week’s drawing and the grand prize drawing (maximum five entries per employee).
