Walk the Rock – Final Results

by Kathleen Minihan · Jun 29, 2016

Congratulations! We are over the moon with the success of this competition and the support from all of our island steppers! The Walk the Rock challenge started off as a tool to help inspire individuals to increase their physical activity and became a wonderful tool not only for teammates but also for members of opposing teams to come together to find motivation and support.

“Can’t tell you how excited I am to complete this challenge. I don’t know who _________is, but you  need to thank her for me. If it wasn’t for her, I wouldn’t have run/walked as hard as I did.”

“We had fun and it opened our eyes about movement and teamwork!”

“It bonded our team in a way we never would have bonded without the challenge, and it was so much fun! I can’t wait for the next one!”

Dining Out & Staying Healthy

by Kathleen Minihan · Jun 15, 2016

Dining out, especially on Nantucket, is a treat! And luckily, choosing to eat out on this little island doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice your health in exchange for pleasing your taste buds. With an abundance of talented chefs who have access to the freshest seafood and locally grown produce, you can be assured that no matter where you go you will find a mouth-watering plate that will meet your nutritional needs.

But there’s more to eating healthy than just the ingredients of the dishes you are consuming. It’s important to consider the various factors that, sometimes subconsciously, can determine what and how much you are eating. Below, I will provide you with a few tips to keep in mind while preparing for (and enjoying!) a meal out on the town.
