Go Move 2021 Logo.jpgFaculty and staff are invited to join the 2021 Go Move Challenge with a chance to win a $50 gift card to the Canisius College Bookstore! All participants will also receive FREE access to an online fitness channel during the challenge.

Fitness is SNOW joke and can be especially tough in the colder months of the year. Join your colleagues at Canisius College to compete against its sister schools in the 2021 Go Move Challenge. The objective is to see which Jesuit school can be the most active during the month of February. Awards go to the university that tracks the most minutes, the university that averages the most number of minutes per participant and the region with the most minutes.

For faculty and staff at Canisius College, the individual who achieves the most number of minutes by the end of the challenge will receive a $50 gift card to the college bookstore.
