WFC Wellness Room Grand Opening
October 20, 2013
CEO Robyn-Jay Bage and Tyler Vartenigian of the Health Consultants Group (HCG) cut the ribbon in September, opening the WFC Wellness Room. With generous support and donations from the Health Consultants Group, WFC converted their activity room to a room that now includes two treadmills and stationary cycles, a stair stepper and a Wii Fitness player. Employees can now get fit without the expense of a fitness club. In addition, Laure Welch of the HCG Wellness Team, organized a health screening for the grand opening. The team provided staff with screenings of blood pressure, weight, body mass index and cholesterol. Employees were given tips to improve health and invited to participate in quarterly "challenges" with a chance to win a prize. The kick-off challenge is a Water Challenge that will help employees be aware of the importance of water in their diet. WFC is extremely grateful to Tyler, Laure and HCG for making our Wellness Center a great benefit for our employees.
