Moving Day Update: Event Details

Our first ever Moving Day New Hampshire is launching this May, but it will look a little different and HYBRID!

What does “hybrid” mean?

Sunday, May 16th will be your rewards, and information and resource pick up at Greeley Park. For the safety of our staff, volunteers, and participants (you!), it will be a contactless drive thru format so that you do not need to get out of the car. Please note, if you cannot pick up on May 16, rewards will be shipped to you post event. You will also be sent a Team Captain Welcome kit prior to walk day so you will be better prepared with information beforehand.

On Saturday, May 22nd, we will be hosting the virtual portion, online, filled with additional information, helpful PD resources and sponsor details as well as PD friendly exercise demos! The exercise demos are a great way to warm up with us virtually then go on your walk – with all your new Moving Day gear!

Where is the “walk”?

Because of COVID and the unknown situation of this year, we prioritized safety and social distancing when planning. We will not have a designated or marked walk route this year; instead, we encourage all teams and participants to walk or #MOVE4PD on their own and share pictures with us to highlight on our social media page(s) and newsletter!

Prior to event day and on event day we will share some walk route suggestions that you can try in your area, or you can do your favorite neighborhood walk with your team! Route suggestions will include 1-mile and 5K+ options that are mostly flat.

Register!

Each team member will need to sign up to have an opportunity to fundraise on their own page for the Moving Day rewards – full list of rewards here. Download the Moving Day app for updates about a step/movement challenge that will launch closer to event day and to earn different movement rewards, but you must be registered to enter. Through the participation center, you can send messages to your team, reach out to your contacts, or set up your Facebook fundraiser to link to your Moving Day page. Registering will also keep you updated with all the Moving Day news!
