Who Can Participate:
This challenge is open to ANYONE  21 to 39 years old, however only members will have access to the resources on NJYP.org.

What are the Prizes:
There will be a prize packages for men and women challengers in each participating county.
The prize package value will be based on this formula:  "$25 x # of same gender participants within the county" so if 50 men sign up in Essex County the prize package will be valued at $1,250.
We will be putting the prize packages together while the competition is going on, but picture everything from restaurant gift cards, spa services, kettle ball classes, fancy new sneakers, etc.
Prize packages will be county based so you will not have to travel far to redeem your gift cards/certificates.

Has the weigh in location and time for Bergen County been determined yet?  I haven't found the information.

Comment by Brian and Mike on January 18, 2012 at 2:05pm

Different times in each county.

Comment by Maggie on January 18, 2012 at 1:50pm

Will all of the weigh ins on Sunday end at 3 or will there be different time options in different counties?

Comment by Shakira on January 18, 2012 at 9:40am

OK I'm in.....not looking forward to getting on the scale though:/

Comment by Brian and Mike on January 16, 2012 at 6:53pm

Hey Lauren- We certainly thought of it but decided it's important to use the same scale for everyone for all 3 weigh-ins. With the new "no questions asked" refund policy this should really work out.

Comment by Lauren on January 16, 2012 at 4:18pm

I have an idea... for those people who cannot make weigh-ins locations/dates but still want to compete...  any way to have a form to fill out that can be signed by a witness... or have someone weigh you at the gym and have your weight sent in on gym letter head?  Might expand the number of people who can participate.

Comment by Brian and Mike on January 14, 2012 at 6:14pm

To all of you on the fence. I just made a change you will LOVE. If you sign up and you do not like the locations/times or for ANY other reason you can get a refund without fees, no questions asked.

We're going to do the weigh-ins at venues, hopefully gyms :)

Comment by Brian on January 13, 2012 at 9:41am

Holy cow, I actually signed up for this thing. 

Are you anticipating the weigh-ins being at a volunteers house or at some type of venue?

Comment by Brian and Mike on January 11, 2012 at 6:51am

Melissa- Some events will have charges and some will not, it will all depend on the event. I'll do my best to negotiate group rates when we are working with venues that need to be paid.
