Our most successful week to date! Up until now our highest week total for steps was 8,361,363, and that was three weeks ago. This week we walked 8,501,617 steps, which brings our AARP/Blue Zones Walking Moai Program total to over 47 million steps! Great work everyone!!

The top 5 teams in the "steps" category are as follows:

1) 3,842,844 - Blood, Sweat and Duct Tape
2) 3,148,953 - The Jolly Walkers
3) 2,715,595 - AL Lakers

The top 5 teams in the "volunteer hours" category are as follows:

1) 133 - Snow White and the Not So Dwarfs
2) 61 - The Brooksiders
3) 56 - The Jolly Walkers
4) 51 - Blood, Sweat and Duct Tape
5) 47 - The Good Earth Gators

The teams with the most moai points so far are the "Early Risers" group and the "Lakewood Ladies" group who both have 16 points.

A 'moai point' is earned each time a whole team walks together.

In the results, you'll notice a blue column to the right of the yellow totals columns. That blue column shows the number of people in each team. Team leaders, if you don't have a number there for your team, please report the number of people on your team to your area coordinator who will then report to one of the three co-directors. This information is very important. Thanks!
