The first year of Kosciusko FIT was so successful that the program will continue in 2013 for those who did not get registered for the 2012 program, or for those who want to continue their fitness program.

The program is available for individuals or teams of four, but everyone must be age 18 or older to participate. The 2nd Annual Kosciusko FIT program aims to encourage participants to adopt healthy eating habits and regular fitness activities for a lifetime.

Cash prizes will be given to the top three in each of these categories: team, male individual and female individual.

Among the sponsors for the 2013 program are Kosciusko Community Hospital, Warsaw Kosciusko County Chamber of Commerce, Kosciusko Community YMCA, and Purdue Extension/Local Faces Countless Connections.

Registration deadline has been extended to Thursday, Dec. 20.

Kick-off will be from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 10, at the Kosciusko Community YMCA Smith Street Gym. The final weigh-in will be June 6. Participants must attend both of these weigh-ins at the YMCA.

Cost to participate is $20 per Individual and $80 per team with choices from one category – to compete only as a team or as an individual. Teams must register and pay as a group of four.
