The benefits of wellness, fitness and service

Share how you are completing one of more of the USA 250 Challenge goals.

American Legion Family members are embracing the USA 250 Challenge, which celebrates the nation’s 250th birthday. Across the U.S., participants are engaging in one or more of the three challenge categories — mental wellness, community service and physical activity.

Now, we want to share your success and inspire others to join. We’d love to hear how you are completing a category or categories, and how participating in the challenge has benefitted you. For example:

Mental wellness: What activities have you engaged in and how have they helped boost your mental wellness?

Community service: What projects have you conducted or participated in that give back to others? Let us know about those projects, the impact they made and how they fulfilled you.

Fitness activities: Whether you are walking, cycling or engaging in another form(s) of movement, let us know how your health and fitness have improved.

Let us know by emailing magazine@legion.org or sharing your USA 250 Challenge journey on the Legiontown website.
