Eleven lucky prize winners at each Air Mobility Command installation were recently selected this month just for enrolling in FitFactor and living a healthy lifestyle.

Kyle Kletschka was the local winner at Grand Forks Air Force Base, N.D. He won an iPod Shuffle.

There will be iPod Shuffle winners at each AMC base and 10, $15 iTunes Music Card winners during the months of July, August and September. In addition, AMC Services will award one grand prize winner at each installation -- a 2GB iPod Nano at the conclusion of the 2007 program on Sept. 30. All prize winners will be randomly selected from the pool of registered FitFactor participants.

The AMC iPod and iTunes music cards will supplement the prizes already offered by Air Force Services. Youths earn and log points for participating in any physical activity and for making healthy eating choices. There are five FitFactor levels: energy, strength, agility, adventure and endurance. Prizes are earned and awarded to youth as they reach each FitFactor level.

FitFactor is a youth health and fitness initiative sponsored by Air Force Services Family Member Programs. The program wraps up its second full year at the end of September. FitFactor encourages physical activity and healthy eating habits of youth between the ages of 6 to18-years-old. This initiative has been instrumental in educating countless youths throughout AMC on the many benefits of an active lifestyle.
