Juniper Village at Brookline’s Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation team is proud to participate in the Facility Fitness Challenge, benefiting the Advantage Stars Foundation!
Juniper is well-represented with three teams:
Juniper Steppers – Melinda Rupert, Ken Bickle, Ashley Paspelock
Miles’s High Walkers – Peter Kretschmer, Micheal Kilborn, Maxine Marak
Strolling Giraffes – Lana Peters, Vicki Mannarino, Sierra Garbrick
The Advantage Stars Foundation exists to provide social, psychological, and economic resources to the indigent in our communities, at no cost. Each year they host the Facility Fitness Challenge, a friendly competition between healthcare facilities to raise money and awareness. It’s a step challenge in a sports bracket format: each team records their step count at the end of each bracket, with those with the highest cumulative scores advance to compete with other facilities. The big winner, of course, is The Advantage Stars Foundation!
