Commit to Fit is a program of Greater Flint Health Coalition aimed at getting more of the population to regularly exercise. Each year the coalition sponsors a month long challenge to groups around the community to exercise daily and keep track of their minutes. This year our members and their partners took home First Prize in our division, winning a silver cup and a $300 cash prize. Pictured above are some of our participant members, L-R: Jerry Heck, Elaine Gremel, Rob Lutz, Dennis Dinsmore, Rich Lewis, Jordan Weeks, Joy Peterman, Rodney Hetherton, Team Coach Tom Svitkovich, President Elect George Gray, GFHC coordinator Alaina Larrea, President Nominee Mike Braun and club President Stephanie Confer.
Congratulations to our entire team!
