ParticipACTION

Help us crown Portugal Cove-St. Philip’s as Canada’s Most Active Community in the ParticipACTION Community Better Challenge – a national physical activity initiative that encourages Canadians to get active! The winning community will receive $100,000.

It is open to everyone and all minutes tracked on the app and website from June 1 – 30 count toward a community’s total score. After June 30, 50 finalist communities will be invited to submit an application explaining why they deserve to be Canada’s Most Active Community. At the conclusion of the challenge, one community will earn the top prize of $100,000 and title of being Canada’s most active. In addition to the national winner, there will also be prizing for the most active community in each province and territory.

Now, more than ever, physical activity and sport participation need to be prioritized to help Canadians stay healthy in mind, body, and community spirit. And the 2021 challenge will be extra fun as ParticipACTION celebrates its 50th anniversary!

Your New & You activities can help our Town win! Participate by downloading the (FREE) ParticipACTION app from Google Play or the App Store where you can track your activity and contribute to the challenge. Every move counts! #CommunityBetterChallenge:
