The Clayton State University
Department of Recreation & Wellness
celebrated National Recreational
Sports & Fitness Day on Wednesday,
Feb. 22, with a day filled with numer-
ous events, information and cash
prizes (for the top three places in the
fitness contests). All events took place
in the Clayton State Student Activities

Highlighting the day were fun fitness
competitions for both students and
Clayton State employees. The fitness
competitions consisted of three events;
Bench Press Contest (for relative
strength), a Total Gym Pull Up Contest,
and the Balance Creek Contest.
Cash prizes were awarded to students who
place in each fitness competition, and an
overall Clayton State University Fitness
Champion title was awarded. The male
and female with the most points accumu-
lated by competing in each contest will
win the overall title of “Clayton State
Fitness Champion” and the winners
will be recognized at an event in April,
and their names will appear on a per-
petual plaque that is on display the
SAC Fitness Center.
Other events on the day included:
