From the Chairman

Importance of Workplace Wellness Employee wellness continues to expand and change in the workplace as organizations implement initiatives to combat rising health care costs and support the development of healthy lifestyles in their workforce. Employers are creating safe work environments, improving employee health and implementing strategies that reduce medical costs as well as increase employee morale and on-the-job efficiency. Wellness programs demonstrate to employees that their health is important while significantly reducing absenteeism, improving productivity and enhancing employee morale.

Brian Daniel Carroll Daniel Construction Co. Chairman, Greater Hall Chamber of Commerce

The Greater Hall Chamber VISION 2030 program identified healthcare as a significant issue in planning for the future of Gainesville-Hall County and implemented a Healthcare Committee in 2007. As part of the committee's program of work, a HealthSmart Wellness Expo is held annually, focusing on community health and wellness and continues to be one of VISION 2030’s most successful initiatives. Additionally, the “Most Fit Company” in Gainesville-Hall County has been a popular program and includes a contest for employers with outstanding wellness plans.

The Annual Chamber Chase 5K & Wellness Walk, now in it's 9th year, is also a VISION 2030 HealthSmart program and includes corporate and community teams. The event includes education and training opportunities for the participants focusing on physical activity and nutrition. Chamber Chase has become one of the community’s most successful wellness programs. On March 31, over 2,000 people participated in some aspect of the race at Riverside Military Academy. Instead of gathering at the company water-cooler for a post-work chat session, thousands of employees descend upon Riverside Military Academy to get a little exercise. The goal of the annual run/ walk is to encourage businesses to create company-based wellness programs for employees. You can learn more or register at ChamberChase5K.com

March 1, 2016 • Greater Hall Chamber of Commerce

“Hall County’s Largest Office Party” at the end of the race course provides an opportunity for employees of different businesses to mix and mingle and unwind after the race. There is food, live music along with prizes to the Fastest Corporate Team, Fastest Community Team, Fastest CEO, Most Spirited Team and T-Shirt Design Team Winner.

Corporate wellness programs are well worth the time and effort invested in them. The success record of companies utilizing these programs indicates that an employee who is happy and healthy is more productive and motivated, stays away from work due to illness less often and remains employed with the company for a longer time. Investing in employee’s health is beneficial to the employee as well as to the company. I hope your organization is planning to participate in Chamber Chase 2016. Sign up as an individual or a team.

The class participating in a simulated driving under the influence using “drunk” goggles while driving a golf cart. At Challenged Child & Friends, the students heard from the staff about the organization and had interactive time with the boys and girls in their classrooms. At Lakewood Baptist Church the class heard a presentation from Jessica Butler, Gateway Domestic Violence Center, on the dangers and signs of teen dating violence. Semuel Maysonet, Finance of America Mortgage, talked with the class about the importance of good credit, and Joy Griffin, United Way of Hall County, led the class on an interactive Poverty Simulation exercise. The day ended at the Boys and Girls Clubs of Hall County where some class members (pictured above) learned about the club's mission and interacted with the kids.

VISION 2030

Health Status of the Community Through the VISION 2030 Healthcare Consortium, two community wide studies of the health status of our community have been completed – one on the adult population and one on children. The Healthcare Consortium is a group of healthcare leaders gathering Hall County data on some of the top health indicators. This group is working toward community health improvement on the local level using meaningful and specific data as well as ongoing communication. Representatives of the consortium include healthcare professionals, doctors, educators and industry leaders. Mimi Collins, CEO The Longstreet Clinic Chair, Greater Hall Chamber Healthcare Consortium

These Heath Snapshots were published to expose definitive obesity in both Hall County’s adults and children. In fact, between 75-80% of adults and 36% of our children are now clinically obese. (Visit VISION2030.org for the full reports.)

As the group presented this data, especially the one on children, VISION 2030 leaders recognized that the future of our community is for and contingent on these children – in 2030 these children will be the leaders, workforce and future of Greater Hall County and beyond. This realization created both awareness and alarm as the majority of our future workforce is slated to have serious health issues.

BLUE ZONE COMMUNITY SUMMIT

Thursday, April 21 | 7:00 p.m. Brenau Downtown Center $25 per person 9 to THRIVE: Learn to Live Better and Longer Presented by Dan Buettner – National Geographic Fellow & New York Times best selling author Join Vision 2030 as we learn from the world’s “Blue Zones” how to move our community towards better health and a thriving quality of life.

Through the work of hundreds of volunteers, VISION 2030 has made great strides and accomplished significant goals for our community. We have much to celebrate! However, the health status of our children is troubling and as a result has the potential to negatively impact our community’s economy and quality of life. Given we have passed the half-way mark and are only 14 years away from 2030, this should be a call to action for us as individuals and a community. By bringing the Blue Zone Community Summit to Gainesville-Hall County, we hope to inspire us individually and as a community to take action and engage in our health and wellness.

March 1, 2016 • Greater Hall Chamber of Commerce

What is the Blue Zone?

Did you know that watering houseplants burns the same number of calories as stretching and walking? Scientists at the Mayo Clinic found that increasing simple movements – standing, walking, and talking – can help you burn an additional 350 calories each day. Sounds easy, right? That’s the point. And, that’s the reason the Healthcare Consortium is hosting the Blue Zone Community Summit on Thursday, April 21, 2016 at the Brenau Downtown Center. National Geographic Fellow and New York Times best selling author, Dan Buettner (bluezones.com) is the featured speaker and will help us understand how to live healthier, happier and longer. In 2004, Dan Buettner teamed up with National Geographic and the world’s best longevity researchers to identify pockets around the world where people live measurably longer better. In these “Blue Zones” they found that people reach age 100 at rates 10 times greater than in the United States. After identifying 5 of the world’s Blue Zones, Dan and National Geographic took teams of scientists to each location to identify lifestyle characteristics that might explain longevity. They found that the lifestyles of all Blue Zones residents shared nine specific characteristics. We call these characteristics the Power 9®. Moving Naturally is one of those characteristics. It can be started as easily as watering houseplants. We invite you to join us as we work toward Vision 2030’s goal of an exceptional quality of life for Hall County – and in the meantime shed pounds, slash healthcare costs, and add years to your average life expectancy! The Blue Zone Community Summit is Open to the Public. Tickets are $25 each. Limited seating. Visit vision2030.org/blue-zones now to reserve your spot!

Imagine the possibilities if we followed the Blue Zone 9 Power Approaches for longevity and happiness: Move naturally Have a purpose Down shift stress Follow the 80% full stomach rule Eat more plants Drink wine Belong to a faith Put loved ones first Join the right tribe

Help Make the VISION a REALITY Stronger workforce. Exceptional quality of life. Thriving economy.
