is a pedometer? A small device worn on a waistband over one
hip that counts the numbers of steps taken during your busy day
- on the job, going to classes, going to meetings, working in your
yard, playing with your children, etc. - tracking all of your movements. All
registrants who do not have a pedometer will receive one.
Whether organized through a club, residence hall, labor department,
academic department, or organization, teams must have 4 members. The
top 5 stepping college recognized club/organization teams will
be awarded money. The top 5 stepping faculty/staff and independent
teams will be awarded prizes.
