Thank you to everyone who participated in the 2020 Pick Your Peak Stair Challenge. 98 faculty and staff climbed their way to health, and this year 23 new climbers and four household teams joined us.
Pick Your Peak is a fun and inclusive way to encourage staff and faculty to incorporate movement and activity in the day. Stair climbing is a great way to boost cardiovascular health, build muscle and strengthen the core.
On the morning of January 29, faculty and staff are invited to visit either the transit exchange or the walkway between the Arts and Sciences buildings for a coffee or tea and information about employee mental health and resources.
At last week’s Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Principal’s Town Hall, a number of employees were recognized for their outstanding service to the university at the annual Staff Awards of Excellence.
Host a Pit Stop and invite your campus partners to learn more about what your group is about. Departments or units willing to host a Pit Stop can collect donations for the UBC Okanagan United Way campaign.
For this year's Thrive Week, all faculty and staff are encouraged to explore the Lynda.com course Thriving@ Work: Leveraging the Connection between Well-Being and Productivity.
