Here’s the breakdown. We are asking members for the next 6 weeks to:

●  PLEDGE to make a charitable donation of at least $20.00 to the winning community organization. Send your pledge by check made out to RIWBA to Lisa M. Kresge’s attention at 362 Broadway, Providence, RI 02909, by Friday, February 10, 2022.

●  WALK (or jog, or bike—any movement counts!), for at least 20 minutes, up to 5 days a week over the 6-week challenge.

●  TRACK how much you walk. Make a copy of our template here, which will automatically add up your totals!

○  DAILY POINT. Give yourself 1 point for each day that you walk at least 20 minutes.

○  WEEKLY POINT. Add an extra 1 point if you meet the challenge for 5 days in a week.

○  BONUS POINTS. We will announce one “bonus point day” at the beginning of each week. Give yourself an extra 1 point if you walk on that day.

○  SEND your point total for the week - more info to follow.

●  SUPPORT the winners’ community organization! There two ways to win:

○  GET THE MOST POINTS. At the end of the month, RIWBA will announce the participants with the top 2 point totals, and direct the participants to donate their pledges to the winners’ chosen community organizations!

○  GET THE BEST PICTURE. While you are out and about, snap some photos of your favorite scenery to share with the RIWBA membership. Send your photos to our Social Media & Website Committee chair, Kelsey Peck, kpeck@adlercohen.com. At the end of the challenge we will choose a winner with the most-liked photo and ask our participants to donate their pledges to the winner’s chosen community organization!

●  For those who would like to share a walk with their RIWBA colleagues, we will meet in Providence on Wednesdays at 12:00 in front of Superior Court for a quick, 20-minute walking loop over the pedestrian bridge downtown.

●  If you have any questions, contact Jessica Rider, jrider@whelancorrente.com
