The Health Department has 300 free pedometers for anyone interested in using one! Pedometers are a great tool to modify your behavior and encourage you to keep moving, take the stairs instead of the elevator, and send your documents to the printer that's furthest from your desk!
If a group of employees in a particular department all get pedometers, you can support one another, and perhaps even reward yourselves with a special treat or outing when everyone has reached a specified goal for the month. Be creative, and let us know what you do!
To obtain a pedometer, call Keith Carlson at x3161 or email carlsonk@amherstma.gov
