| “Change is inevitable in life. You can either resist it and potentially get run over by it, or you can choose to cooperate with it, adapt to it, and learn how to benefit from it. When you embrace change you will begin to see it as an opportunity for growth.” — Jack Canfield GMHEC is currently looking for Well-being Ambassadors. GMHEC Well-being Ambassadors are faculty and staff volunteers that help create and sustain cultures of well-being at the GMHEC member colleges by promoting participation and engagement in well-being programs, services, and events. If you are enthusiastic about health and well-being, are an advocate for working towards a healthier lifestyle and are able to lend one hour per month, we want you to join us. To learn more about this exciting opportunity, contact Rebecca Schubert, GMHEC Employee Well-being Program Coordinator at rebecca.schubert@gmhec.org. It’s time to start thinking about skiing! Sugarbush is still finalizing their corporate pass details but if you’re interested in a pass to Smuggler’s Notch you can learn more about the corporate rates here. If you’d like to purchase a pass you can do so here. Currently GMHEC does not have a corporate pass deal with Bolton Valley and this year they are not accepting new corporate members so GMHEC cannot offer discounts. If your college has had a corporate pass in the past, you may be able to take advantage of that again this year.
