Step-the-System Program:
Your Cost: Free!
Begins April 1st and ends November 30th
It is widely known that walking is good for us. In addition to physical benefits, walking provides stress release and can help promote emotional well-being. To help you reap these benefits, the Step the System program counts steps instead of miles. Step the System Informational Sessions (registration not required) will be held as follows:
| Campus | Date | Time | Location |
| Granite State College | March 3rd | Noon to 1 | Room 103 Concord. |
| Keene State College | March 4th | Noon to 1 | Room 309, Student Center |
| University of New Hampshire | March 5th | Noon to 1 | Room 330-332, MUB |
| Plymouth State University | March 7th | Noon to 1 | Student Center Room, HUB |
| University of New Hampshire – Manchester | March 14th | Noon to 1 | Room 255 |
| System Offices | March 18th | Noon to 1 | Dunlap Center, Conference Room |
At the informational session we'll provide you with a free pedometer (which counts your steps) and details about the Step the System Program. In addition, there will be four lottery drawings at the completion of the program. The drawings will be for $250 gift cards from one of the following vendors: Barnes & Noble, Borders, Home Depot, Lowes or LL Bean.
