Walkathon
SSAI Walkathon information for 2025
Hello everyone. I hope everyone had a great holiday season with friends and family. It’s hard to believe but it is time to start preparing for our Provincial Walkathon again. I will be putting the packages for our 2025 Walkathon together soon. I am hopeful that we will have our best participation ever. This event is meant to encourage all the members of our Seniors Clubs across Saskatchewan to get moving after a long winter. For six weeks your club members will keep track of their daily physical activities using a formula supplied in the information kit your club will receive. At the end of six weeks your information will be remitted to the event coordinator and tabulated to see the winning results. All of this information will be available at the convention or before. Certificates will be presented to the winners at the convention. Because of the way the calculations are done every club has the same opportunity to receive a certificate. It is called a walkathon, but other forms of exercise are acceptable. Cycling, swimming and bowling just to name a few. Also using a treadmill is an acceptable form of exercise. The Participaction website has a list of activities that you may find useful as well. https://www.participaction.com/en-ca. Our Walkathon is all about having fun and getting healthy. The dates for the 2025 Walkathon will be the same as 2024, April 1st to May 15th. Club totals must be in no later than May 24th. I will be mailing out packages to the clubs at the end of February. If you do not receive a package and are interested in joining in the walkathon, or have questions please contact me at one of the forms of communication listed below.
