Prince Albert, SK - Prince Albert is registered for the 2021 Saskatchewan Blue Cross Go Out & Play Challenge. The Challenge offers communities a chance to win $10,000 for a project that gets kids and families out to play. The community that moves most during the 10-day Challenge wins the grand prize. We want it to be us!
We need everyone to help us win. We’re counting on residents, friends, neighbours and family members to get moving to win this year’s Challenge, March 1 – 10! If you walk, ski or toboggan at Little Red River Park, work out at the Alfred Jenkins Field House or Margo Fournier Centre, swim at the Frank J. Dunn Pool, walk on the Rotary Trail or ANY physical activity from March 1st to 10th we need you to register and record your minutes of activity daily.
Prince Albert plans to put the grand prize to good use. The $10,000 prize would go towards a Youth Fitness Circuit consisting of a Rope Climb, Peg Bridge and Under Bars station to be installed at a City park this summer!
It’s easy to participate and log your physical activity online. Here’s what you need to do every day of the Challenge:
1. Be physically active. Don’t forget walking, active play and chores like shoveling snow!
2. Log on to the Challenge website (challenge.saskatchewaninmotion.ca). Create a personal or family profile starting February 17th.
3. Log your minutes of physical activity to add to Prince Albert’s total every day.
The Challenge is designed to encourage communities to think about the important role they play when it comes to providing opportunities for outdoor play. For more information, rules and regulations visit challenge.saskatchewaninmotion.ca. For great active games, go to Push2Play.ca!
