For six weeks, Get Fit encourages people to stay in shape and be active. Participants register via GetFitHV to perform 30 minutes of any kind of physical activity and log it through the #GetFitHV Twitter hashtag or GetFitHV.com. The more entries participants submit, the better their chances to win fun prizes. Prizes include an Apple Watch, NatureBox gift card, NutriBullet Rx and many more.
“It’s a fun way to a healthier you,” said Amy Tourge, supervisor of Northern Dutchess Hospital’s Wellness Center, a new Get Fit check-in location where participants can log exercise.
Other eligible check-in locations, which span across Dutchess, Ulster and Putnam counties, include the Walkway Over the Hudson, Mohonk Preserve, National Park Service’s Hyde Park trails, Bowdoin Park in Wappingers Falls, Putnam County Trailway, Putnam County Golf Course, Hudson Highlands Gateway Park in Cortlandt, Poughkeepsie CrossFit and Gold’s Gym in LaGrange.
Get Fit is sponsored by Vassar Brothers Medical Center, Northern Dutchess Hospital and Putnam Hospital Center.
