About the Wellness Challenge
As a part of the Chamber of Commerce, the Fairfield Wellness Revolution seeks to create a unified avenue of access to the wonderful health-related resources that citizens have in their own community. To achieve this, a centralized infrastructure has been implemented via an annual large-scale local health fair and a bi-annual Wellness Revolution Challenge.
The Wellness Challenge has been developed to create a "healthy competition" among the residents of the area in an effort to fulfill the mission of the Wellness Revolution.
First, the team is formed. A team will consist of 3 members; a captain and two teammates. The registration process is started by the captain through the registration portal located on the website, www.ffldwellness.com. Once the names and emails of the team are entered, a confirmation email is distributed to each individual which requires them to follow and account activation link.
All team members must complete their registration and account activation in order for the team to become active and participate in the challenge. The captain has the ability to remove a user during the challenge and add another in his/her place, however, the team must always have a full roster in order to play. (After all…what’s a challenge if the team’s aren’t equal?)
Next, the challenge begins! Challenge dates will be set by the administrators of the Wellness Revolution. Once the challenge becomes "live", players may log into their dashboard to play. All players will be presented with a daily list of challenges/questions (that can be modified) to answer each day for the duration of the challenge in order to gain (or lose!) points for their team. The challenges will be broken into categories: physical improvement, dietary/nutritional changes, and health education.
Players are only allowed to submit points once for each day of the challenge. Once points have been submitted, that day is locked and no further changes can be made. In case they forget, players will also be able to enter points for previous days by selecting the date from the calendar.
During the course of the challenge, players will be able to view their teams' standing in the ranks as well as the top five teams in the Challenge. As the challenge is occurring, spectators may also view the top 3 teams’ progress on the main page of the Wellness Revolution.
At any time during the challenge, players have the ability to view their “score report” which details how they answered each challenge item/question by date and the calculated point value. They are also able to generate the same report in Microsoft Excel format so that they may download their own record to save and compare with future challenges!
The administrators of the Wellness Revolution Challenge, as well as any appointed Directors, will have access to all team information and standings. The rest of those competing will only have access to their own personal records during the Challenge.
This website will be a wonderful, centralized source for health and wellness information. Tips and tricks for physical fitness, health related articles written by local experts, directions for a healthy diet, and much, much more! Sponsors that support the Wellness Revolution will have clickable banners throughout the site and be able to submit their own health-related articles as well.
The Fairfield Wellness Revolution will produce the best health improvement challenge available to the masses. We will be the prototype for the surrounding cities and towns, counties, and states. We envision global wellness through the largest health challenge ever imagined. We have planned for this level, and now we’ll see it happen. Will you be a part of the WELLNESS REVOLUTION? |
