Exercisers use kids' games for Wellness Week activity
By Lynn Maree Ross
Staff writer
Wescoe Beach may more closely resemble a playground today when members of the Lifestyles Commit ramp rope and teeter-totter for health.
The committee's effort is one event of Wellness Week, April 13-20, sponsored by the office of residential programs.
Julie Gross, the committee chairman, said members would jump rope and teeter-totter from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Wellness Week Wescoe Beach Bash.
Wellness, she said, involves the physical, emotional, social, intellectual, vocational and spiritual sides of a person.
"In order for people to be well, those things have to be in balance," she said. "You can't put all of your energy into one part of your life."
It's like spokes in a wheel, she said,
with each spoke representing a different side of life. If one spoke is weak, the wheel gets wobbly.
Tammy Jones, hall director at Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corin Hall and member of the committee, said the committee decided to jump rope and teeter-totter because having run and the ability to play was part of good health. The committee members will take turns jumping rope and riding the teeter-totter during the three-hour event.
The committee also will serve free orange juice, distribute fitness brochures and conduct a wellness survey. Gross said health professionals from Watkins Hospital would be on hand to check students' blood pressure.
The survey involves answering questions about lifestyle, eating habits, self-respect and self-esteem, she said. The questions will be displayed on a chalkboard, so students can see them as they walk by.

Soraya Clark, residence hall director at Lewis Hall and member of the committee, said that although she had not jumped rope or been on a teeter-stair in years, she didn't think she would have trouble remembering how to do the exercises.
The office of residential programs, along with the residence halls, provided funds for all of the activities scheduled for Wellness Week. Gross said all students were invited, even though most of the events would be held in the residence halls.
