Sign Up Now for the NVFC Step Strong Challenge
The National Volunteer Fire Council (NVFC) is excited to launch its inaugural Step Strong Challenge, which will run Oct. 1-31. Participants are challenged to meet certain step goals during the month of October to improve their fitness and earn chances to win prizes.
Responders can up the challenge by making it a competition in their departments or families as to who can earn the most steps.
To participate:
- Download the Challenge app from the Apple App Store or Google Play.
- Launch the app and select “NVFC Step Strong” Challenge from the list.
- Complete the in-app registration and pair your supported activity tracker. Anyone with a smartphone can track their steps.
- Starting Oct. 1, sync your step data to the app by selecting “Tap to sync steps” at the top of the Summary tab. Sync at least one time per 24-hour period and before the Challenge end time to make sure all of your steps count!
Bonus activities will also be offered throughout the month to earn a 5,000-step boost per activity.
Every participant who achieves at least 200,000 steps (approximately 6,500 steps daily) will be entered into raffles for the chance to win prizes. Additional raffles will be held for those who achieve 300,000 steps (approximately 9,700 steps daily) and the top 10 steppers. The overall top stepper will win a grand prize.
