Earn a President's Challenge Award with Snow Sports
You
can earn a President's
Challenge Award by combining snowshoeing, snowboarding, alpine
skiing, and/or cross country skiing with any other physical activity. Children,
teens and adults can choose from two programs, Active Lifestyle or Presidential
Champions, and follow four easy steps to earn awards.
- Choose an activity.
Any snow sport – snowshoeing, snowboarding, alpine skiing or cross country
skiing – can be combined with other activities such as running, walking
or even an exercise class. Be sure to look for snow sports on the activities
list.
- Get active
If you're younger than 18, your daily activity goal is 60 minutes a day, five
days a week for six weeks. The goal for adults (18 and older) is 30 minutes
a day, five days a week for six weeks. You can spread this out over a period
of eight weeks if you like.
- Track Activity
An on-line activity log makes it easy to track time spent on activities. Log
on as many times as necessary.
- Earn an Award
The Active Lifestyle and Presidential Champions programs recognize accomplishments
with special awards.
