Re: WOW: Week of Wellness Monday June 8 - Friday June 12, 2009
All Staff and Faculty are invited to the first ever UCSB WOW: Week of Wellness!
The week from Monday June 8th to Friday June 12th is filled with fun events designed to help you jump start your health for the summer. With plenty of chances to win prizes, get healthy lifestyle tips, and exercise in the sunshine, it is going to be a week of renewal and recharging.
All staff and faculty will receive a WOW invitation card with more details on all of the activities. Please keep this invitation card all week, as it doubles as your punch card to enter the drawing for several exciting grand prizes. All you need to do to enter the drawing is to attend at least one activity each day! Don't worry if you can't make it to any activities one day. You will still have the chance to win gift certificates at any activity you DO make it to!

Taking a comprehensive approach to wellness, each day of WOW has a different theme.
MONDAY (June 8): Jump Start Your Health
Take charge of your health today by "knowing your numbers." Get a Biometric Screening at the Recreation Center and get your questions answered by a registered dietician and personal trainers. Get in bathing suit shape with Fit Squad.
TUESDAY (June 9): Positively Energetic
Don't make "tired", "groggy", and "sleepy" a part of your vocabulary! Enjoy a Power Smoothie Breakfast, a chair massage, and a guided relaxation workshop to help you feel recharged.
WEDNESDAY (June 10): The Science of Happiness
Would you like to be happy? If you answered yes, we will show you scientifically proven ways to increase your happiness to put a smile on your face.
THURSDAY (June 11): Eat Right
We are what we eat, so let's fuel our bodies with organic fruits and vegetables from John Givens farms, healthy snacks designed by a registered dietician, and meals from the Staff and Faculty Cookbook.
FRIDAY (June 12): Celebrate Wellness
Celebrate health and wellness at the closing ceremony with lunch and drawings for Grand Prize winners. You can also get a Biometric Screening, and work out with Fit Squad if you missed it on Monday.

To be entered in the drawing for the Grand Prize on Friday:
Keep your WOW punch card all week. We'll punch out a fruit or veggie on the card each day you attend an activity.
