Description:
|
Developed in 1996 by Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service, Walk Across Texas! (WAT!) is a community-based program to help people of all ages establish physical activity as a life-long habit. Delivered online, through a team-based structure, participants are challenged to virtually walk across Texas by logging various types of activities as ‘miles walked’. The purpose of this project will be to assist the Team Leader with researching, developing and evaluating communication efforts and resources targeted toward a college audience. |
