College “Wellness” Days – Celebrate, Learn, Renew, Community

May 31, 2012

College Days are new this year (sort of), going from a week of workshops, festivities, and activites to a month long compilation of events.  Since Wellness activities are spread throughout the calendar, here are a few highlights.

May 31st – Innovation Day – The Wellness Committee will be in the NDC Library hallway with the blog on display as well as a Blender Bike – which combines biking with blendering.  So come by, saddle up, meet some Wellness Committee members, have a smoothie, etc.

June 4th – Wellness Day Breakfast / Walk-a-thon / Commuter Challenge – a chance to forgo the chores of preparing your own brekkie so you can come in and have something healthy at work. This is at the Voyageur Cafeteria (NDC) and the Roblin Centre cafeteria as well. The Walk-a-thon begins at noon and runs till 1:30 – at the NDC and EDC campuses.  A great time to stretch the legs and get out – go here to register.

The Sustainability Office also kicks off the Commuter Challenge this week.

June 8th – Picnic on the Lawnat NDC. New this year, is the picnic on the lawn at the NDC campus. This should be a good time to get outside, meet some co-workers, and hopefully enjoy some sunshine for a change.

RRC Polytech campuses are located on the lands of Anishinaabe, Ininiwak, Anishininew, Dakota, and Dené, and the National Homeland of the Red River Métis.

We recognize and honour Treaty 3 Territory Shoal Lake 40 First Nation, the source of Winnipeg’s clean drinking water. In addition, we acknowledge Treaty Territories which provide us with access to electricity we use in both our personal and professional lives.
