Core for a Cause

Description

Overview Participants will complete plank-hold exercises throughout the month to raise funds for Lewiston Cares, earn points, and win prizes. This challenge is designed for all fitness levels and focuses on both consistency and personal improvement. The challenge will run from May 4th to May 29th. How it works: Start by recording your longest plank (your baseline). You can also set a personal goal. Ask sponsors to pledge an amount per second of your final plank (suggested: $0.10–$0.25 per second, but any amount works). Sponsors can set a maximum donation if they want. Practice your planks and improve them with core exercises throughout the month. At the end of the month, record your final plank and collect donations based on your time. ​ Example pitch: “I’m doing the Core of the Cause Plank Challenge to support Lewiston Cares. I started at 30 seconds and hope to reach 60 seconds by the end of the month. Would you like to pledge $0.10–$0.25 per second?” ​ There will be prizes for majority completion and beyond, as well as most improved (see more about prizes below). Any combination of points counts, and you do not need to have points from every category. The scoring structure is: Prizes: Most Improved - Winner chooses one of the following grand prizes: 1. Haircut + wash with Dezyrae Meoak at Bliss Salon and Spa 2. 30 Minute Massage at Lavender & Grace Bodyworks 3. One month of classes at Movement on Main Most Donations - Choice between remaining 2 grand prizes. 75+ Points - Movement on Main Pint Glass 100+ Points: 15% off merch & entry into prize raffle. After the Most Improved & Most Donations winners makes their selections, the remaining prize will be raffled off.
