WorkWell, a Nebraska worksite wellness council and division of the Nebraska Safety Council, is taking a giant leap forward and holding their inaugural Wellness Legacy Awards event at Nebraska Innovation Campus in Lincoln on May 6. As the administrators of the Governor’s Wellness Award for the past seven years, WorkWell is the premier organization in Nebraska for the recognition of worksite wellness achievements and they are adding to their awards categories with this event.

Many individuals have left a legacy of good health and wellness impacting their families, friends, co-workers and communities with their inspirational healthy lifestyles and wellness leadership. The examples and contributions of these individuals will have a positive effect on future generations and they deserve to be recognized and their stories need to be shared.

WorkWell is now taking award nominations to be recognized at the May 6th evening event. This will include a social hour with opportunities to win prize packages such as Nebraska Football Tickets, a weekend getaway with Chicago Cubs tickets and Hotel Accommodations and many others. Doors open at 6:00 p.m. for a social hour, and a dinner by Misty’s followed by the award presentation will begin at 7:00 p.m.

Award nomination and event details are available at www.nesafetycouncil.org, or by contacting Tonya Vyhlidal at tvyhlidal@nesafetycouncil.org or Jackie Varicak at jvaricak@nesafetycouncil.org. You may also call 402.483.2511 Ext. 115 for more information about the Nebraska Safety Council.
