The YMCA of the Chippewa Valley has received a $7,000 grant from the Response and Recovery Community Fund of the Eau Claire Community
Foundation to support The STRONG Challenge – a free, 6-week community-wide wellness initiative for the entire Chippewa Valley.
The STRONG Challenge will start on Monday, October 19 and last for six weeks. Participants will be challenged to be active for 20 minutes per day, five days a week, for six weeks. Each week there will be an additional challenge related to the weekly themes of play, connect, rest, serve
and balance.
The STRONG Challenge is open to everyone in the Chippewa Valley and there is no cost to participate. Participants will receive weekly motivation, resources, workouts, support and more. During the challenge, those who don’t already belong to the YMCA will be able to attend the Y for one day each week to enjoy swimming, working out, and a variety of classes.
