Fit Pick in New York’s Times Square

Last year we launched a Fit Pick initiative across Clark County. I was a part of a group called Community Choices and we worked for two years developing, testing, and implementing a program to convert machines to have healthier options. My company along with other vendors on the committee started with City and County government buildings. When this program was launched last year, we received national media attention including an appearance in New York’s Times Square!

An article on this story is here.

Today, we just had our one-year reunion meeting. Things are going well. The vendors on the committee estimated that the number of machines with Fit Pick now has grown 20 or 30 fold since last year!
