Welcome to our first Biggest Loser contest! I hope that this will be a rewarding experience for everyone involved! We're going to have a moderator, who will be the sole person recording everyone's weight and calculating our percentage of weight loss every week. The moderator will not be participating in the contest, however, will need to be present at each weigh-in. There will be 4 teams: Red Team, Yellow Team, Blue Team, Green Team. We are asking for a $5.00 donation, which can be paid any time before the end of the 12 weeks. It will be the prize money to the two winners. Hopefully, our weight loss will be a bigger reward in itself! Weekly weigh-ins will be done using the same scale for everyone. We'd like to make Saturday evening the weigh-in/meeting time in hopes that more people will be able to participate and children's sporting events will hopefully not conflict. If you're not able to be present at the weekly weigh-in, we ask that you choose someone not on your team to vouch for your weight and call the moderator with the result. After all, it will be the beginning and ending weights that really matter and nobody is getting voted off! We will choose teams at the first weigh in on Saturday, May 8th at 7:00 pm at the front of the running trail (next to the playground) at Harry G. Daniels (Ironbridge) Park. My hope is that we can all work out together, whether on the same teams or not. Please let me know if you would be interested in being a coach or moderator! Thanks and good luck!
