Brenda Batschelet (right) was recently awarded a six-month membership to the Greene County Community Center as part of Jefferson park and recreation department’s New Year’s Fitness Challenge. She was presented a certificate by JPRD wellness coordinator Simeon Lang (left).
One year ago JPRD staff encouraged members to exercise three times per week for three months in an effort to build consistency in improving their health. Not only did Batschelet meet the challenge, she went above and beyond and recorded her exercise activity for the entire year.
Along the way she has lost nearly 40 pounds and continues to be a positive example of consistency.
This year JPRD is playing “Fitness Bingo” with assorted challenges and prizes to be awarded. “Stop in and join the fun,” said Lang.
