Team UAMS Gets Moving with the #ShowUsYourMoves Challenge

By Yavonda Chase

April 9, 2019 | In the month of February, UAMS had its first challenge for wellness.

The Show Us Your Moves UAMS challenge used the hashtag #showusyourmovesuams on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. The challenge encouraged employees and students to post a photo on social media tagging the Get Healthy UAMS page and using the hashtag.

Dr. Patterson kicked it off with the announcement video and our employees showed up for the challenge.

“I was really pleased with how many people participated in our first wellness challenge,” said Natalie Cannady, UAMS Wellness director. “I hope that even more members of Team UAMS lace up their sneakers for our upcoming challenges.”

A drawing was held from those entries and the following people won a UAMS T-shirt for participating:

  • Alexa Rae
  • Amy Jo Jenkins
  • Amy Widner
  • Summer Khairi
  • Larissa Clark
  • Laxmi Yeruva
  • Kyeon Stone
  • Leslie Jordan
  • Erika Petersen
  • Sara Shalin

The latest challenge is the UAMS 10,000 steps challenge, which is going on through the month of April! Use the hashtag #10000stepsuams and tag our Get Healthy UAMS social media accounts throughout the month. Let’s get moving!
