Woodbury Thrives

Woodbury THRIVES is a community initiative aimed at improving the health of residents in the broadest of ways: physical health, spiritual and emotional well-being and financial health. Events and services will help residents grow in health and financial literacy, improve healthy behaviors, and together promote Woodbury as a health and wellness community. The benefits will include healthier families, a more vibrant source of employees for economic development, and better access to services that help citizens adopt a lifestyle of health and well-being.

We're counting on the weather rebounding in the next week so you can take the plunge at Polar Plunge Woodbury on Saturday, February 9. This is your opportunity to experience the thrill of jumping into Carver Lake in February to help raise funds for the work of Special Olympics. If you're not brave enough to make the jump, you can throw a rubber chicken into the lake instead. It's incredibly fun and you'll "feel warm all over" afterwards for having helped out Special Olympics.

For more information, go to the Polar Plunge Woodbury webpage. If you can't participate, but want to help out the cause, you can make the event more special for our Woodbury Thrives Volunteer Kayte Barton by making a donation as one of her sponsors https://reg.plungemn.org/participant/kaytebarton.
