Riverside, CA - The faculty, staff and students of La Sierra University are all invited to join a new comprehensive fitness program called Well@LSU. The kick off event was held on campus Dec. 1 to invited participants and inform the campus community.

“We had a lot of students turn out to the event,” says Sue Curtis, chairperson of the La Sierra University Wellness Committee and associate vice president of Student Life.

To begin the process individuals need to go to Health Services for analysis. Next they will work with Donna Morgan, La Sierra University Wellness Coordinator, on a realistic fitness plan that is sent to Human Resources.

“By commencement time we will look over the fitness plans and see who has reached their goals,” says Curtis. “If they reach their goal they will get a free t-shirt and each group, faculty, staff and students, are eligible for a drawing of $250.”

The next Well@LSU event will take place Tuesday, January 10, at noon on the La Sierra University campus mall. They will take blood pressure, provide water, and many door prizes will be given away.
