Let the Resolutions Begin!
Was it ever your New Year’s Resolution not to just lose weight but to start exercising? Well, here’s your chance. The UTB/TSC Wellness Program is the answer to “Where do I start?” You can make this goal a reality.
Remember our slogan for this year is “Taking Wellness to Heart.” It’s time to start putting off your exercise excuses and start your heart towards a better tomorrow. No more excuses!!! It’s time to get your heart pumping and jumping to a better, stronger beat.
Every UTB/TSC employee is eligible to participate in Wellness. Membership is at no cost to employees. After you join, encourage your peers to join, too. Employees who elect to participate MUST sign a waiver PRIOR to participating in any Wellness activity. The waiver simply verifies that participants are aware of the risks and believe that they are sufficiently healthy enough to participate. All Wellness members are strongly encouraged to receive a physical examination before beginning any exercise program.
