We are a coalition of organizations and individuals of the community of Wrangell with an interest in making Wrangell a WELL community.

We have received a $17,500 grant through February, 2009 from the SouthEast Area Regional Health Consortium for the purpose of engaging the organizations and businesses of Wrangell to engage in worksite wellness activities, as an avenue of reaching many community members.

Through this grant, and the strength of the partnership of our local organizations, we are bringing forth programs that promote health and wellness in our community.

The Healthy Wrangell Coalition will be awarding “Wellness Champions” - individuals and businesses that have done exceptional work to make Wrangell a healthier place to live.

If you would like to nominate a person or business,
contact: Victoria Martin at 874-7166 or iccimac@hotmail.com

The Rec Center is a tremendous resource available to the citizens of Wrangell, and we strongly support this facility.

Facility includes:

Saltwater swimming pool                                                Weight room

Cardio equipment (treadmill, elliptical,
stationary bikes, stairmaster)                                         Racquetball Court (make reservations ahead of time)

The focus of the coalition this year is bringing the concept of worksite wellness to the businesses and organizations in Wrangell, regardless of size or structure. We held a training in May sponsored by SEARCH on the basic principles of starting a worksite wellness program in an business or organization.
