We were SO CLOSE!
The City of Camrose came in 6th place in the Province and 46th overall in Canada which is an amazing achievement! Unfortunately, only the top five in the province move on to the final round to become Canada’s Most Active Community to win $100,000 towards recreation.
We are so proud of our community and thank everyone who participated! Keep staying active and we'll see you next year!
What is the Community Better Challenge?
The ParticipACTION Community Better Challenge is a national physical activity initiative that encourages Canadians to get active in search of Canada’s Most Active Community.
Visit www.ParticipACTION.com to track your minutes and download the app!
Who can participate in the challenge?
It is open to everyone and all minutes tracked on the app and website from June 1 – 30 count toward a community’s total score. After June 30, 50 finalist communities will be invited to submit an application explaining why they deserve to be Canada’s Most Active Community.
Organizations, schools, sport groups, recreation centres and workplaces can participate in the challenge by tracking the group activities they organize like in-person or virtual group exercise classes, practices, events or even lunchtime walks on the Community Better Challenge website from June 1 - 30.
Every minute tracked goes toward our municipality’s score! The more organizations that participate the better the our chance of being named Canada’s Most Active Community. So spread the word, engage your family and friends in physical activity and have a lot of fun while you’re at it!
What prizes are available?
One community will earn the top prize of $100,000 and title of being Canada’s most active. There will also be prizing for the most active community in each province and territory.
You also have the chance to win great prizes for yourself when you use the app. Check out the Apple App Store or Google Play and download the ParticipACTION app today.
