Welcome to our Spring Training contest!

We would all like a no-cost-to-company wellness program that is easy to implement but effective in changing lifestyles. The Dump Your Plump wellness contest fits that tall order.

Dump Your Plump offers an inexpensive program that utilizes the advantages of the worksite. Last year's contest which included 1500 participants from local companies had an average weight loss of 8 pounds per contestant. The success of the program received newspaper coverage and even a three minute story on the evening news of TV5 and WTAM 1100 radio.

Dump Your Plump has been used by over eighty thousand people in over 700 contests nationwide.
All a company needs to do is put up a poster and hand out information. Those employees who are interested in becoming team captains will be trained and supervised by the Wellness Council.
Of course, a company may become more involved if it wishes.

Teams are made up of five to ten people who want to increase their exercise, learn more about nutrition and lose weight in a team-supportive atmosphere. The ten week program begins after team captains attend a single training session.

In addition to a healthier lifestyle, participants are eligible for prizes. An award t-shirt will be given to every participant who meets both their exercise and weight loss goals. Top team prizes include overnight stays at local luxury hotels, admissions to family amusement parks and other entertainment.

If you are interested in brochures or posters or further information, you may obtain them at http://www.healthyohio.org/dyp.htm and follow contest links or call 440-953-9292.

Sincerely yours,
