Global Corporate Challenge 2009

As part of our Health and Wellness Program, the University has registered to become a participant in the Global Corporate Challenge Program 2009 (GCC). The GCC program seeks to promote fitness through being part of a walking group, and involves participants in "virtual" interactive experiences as you "walk around the world". The GCC 2009 starts on 21 May and ends on 22 September.

To celebrate La Trobe's participation in the Global Corporate Challenge program, Mr Shane Bilsborough, a Director of GCC has kindly agreed to provide a presentation on health and nutrition at La Trobe University.

The presentation will be held at the HuEd Lecture Theatre, Bundoora on Thursday 17 September 2009 at

12.30 pm, and by video conference to Room ART 403, Bendigo and Room 3116, Wodonga. All staff are welcome to attend, including colleagues who are not participants.

Walking tracks

The University is fortunate to have excellent walking tracks around its campuses. Staff and participants in the GCC are encouraged to try some of these walks

Suggestions for more walking tracks, especially at the regional campuses would be most welcome.
