is definitely not your average field day—Toss an angry bird, throw a bullet pass, test your aim and agility, climb a rock wall and do so much more at Northern Westchester Hospital’s first annual FitQuest on Saturday, May 12!

Families from all of Northern Westchester will converge on the 200,000 square foot FitQuest field at Chappaqua Crossing and compete through a series of exciting activities at varying degrees of difficulty. Your flexibility, balance, and endurance will all be tested; teamwork will be required; and best of all, parents will be getting just as sweaty and dirty as their kids, as they complete these challenges as a family!

Northern Westchester Hospital, along with a small band of devoted volunteers, created FitQuest with the goal of bringing together all the communities in Northern Westchester, raising funds for the Hospital, and furthering the Hospital’s mission to promote health and wellness.

By participating, you are also increasing your school’s chance of winning one of four health and wellness grants. Grants in the amount of $1,250 each are being awarded to a school or district for the most funds raised and the largest number of participants.
