#HealthyKnoxville is a monthly community wellness challenge designed to inspire you to live a healthier lifestyle - physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, intellectually, and financially.
Each month, Knoxville Hospital & Clinics, together with our partners – Knoxville Wellness Coalition, Knoxville Community School District, Knoxville Chamber of Commerce, and City of Knoxville – will provide fun challenges to help you aspire to be the best version of yourself.
Along the way, we’ll have some fun supporting one another, our local businesses, and community organizations! Plus, you may be eligible to win cool prizes!
It’s easy to participate. Download each month’s activity, follow the directions and hang it on your refrigerator, family activity station, work desk, or shared workspace.
Invite your family, friends, neighbors, and co-workers to join you! Have fun with it by challenging another family or business to compete against your family or organization!
