How It Works

Open to Cornell Students, Staff, and Faculty

For three weeks, July 14 – August 1, 2025, participants will receive a weekly email focused on wellbeing, exploring the Health Promoting Campus themes of people, places, and the planet. These emails will be filled with on- and off-campus events, recipes, and activities aimed at sparking creativity and fun.

Feel free to join from anywhere, at any time! Share your photos, experiences, and connect with other adventurers on our Viva Engage Summer Wellbeing Adventure channel. You can also email wellbeing@cornell.edu. We'll showcase some of our favorite photos here, in the Viva group, and in the weekly emails! Watch for amusing appearances by Wilbur Wellbear, Touchdown's less competitive cousin. Check out the sidebar for a Wilbur printout you can bring along on your own adventures!

 


MARK YOUR CALENDAR! Chillin' On The Quad, July 31

The adventure will culminate in a "Chillin’ on the Quad" event on July 31st from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM at the Ag Quad. Join us for music, fun, special guests, plus delicious FREE iced coffee for the first 300 guests!
