The Wellness Wonders of AZ encourages community to be active and discover Arizona

This season’s Wellness Wonders of Arizona successfully boosted the health and wellness of communities around the state. The free, six-week challenge wrapped up on November 12 with over 600 participating community members from more than 65 Arizona businesses.
