Come join our Annual Food Drive and enjoy some fitness fun.  Teams of 2 compete in a timed obstacle course.  This years course will be more of a fun relay course and less cardio/weight based.  Donate non-perishable food items to participate.  All donations will go to the Food Bank of Manatee.  You can drop them off at the Fitness Center before-hand or bring them to the event. 

When:  Friday, November 17th

Time:  10:00am - 1:00pm (10 minute increments)

  • The relay will only take 5 min or less!
  • Teams limited to 18 spots!

Location:  Riverwalk Field (grassy area just east of the marina after walking under the bridge)

  • Grab a partner and come up with a clever team name.
  • Open to all Manatee County Government Employees and adult health plan members!
  • Registration required. Go to manatee.timetap.com or scan the QR below.
