Wayne Countryview Care and Rehabilitation recently hosted the fifth annual Commit To Be Fit week where we have a different activity every day to promote fitness and movement for our residents.
The theme this year was “Walk for a Cure” and the facility partnered with the Dementia Society 60 mile walk challenge in a effort to raise $500 for Dementia research.
On Oct. 12, children from Rainbow World Childcare were invited to take part in a Color Run with residents of Countryview. Wayne High School FBLA students also assisted with the event.
Among the week's activities was a “search” for a cure with a scavenger hunt walk and giant word find.
The week was capped off with the Wayne State College marching band marching through the parking lot for our residents to enjoy.
As of midweek, the facility had 62 miles logged and our challenge was 60 but were still trying to reach the $500 goal.
Donations for the Dementia Society will be accepted though October anyone interested in helping the cause can contact Countryview for more information.
