You broke last year’s record for IL with an 11% increase!

We came in 33 rd, of 49 states.!

 Congratulations to the 14,322 folks who JAMmed in Illinois - this is truly amazing.  Thank you so much to each and every one of you for making this year monumental.

A big thank you to everyone who worked so hard to rally participation, to those that put a lot of extra work into making this an event for your group(s), to everyone who stopped at that moment to JAM and for all the unique and creative adaptations for the day.

Why it Works. Physical activity is universal, is an equalizer and positively affects 100% of the population. It’s the one “thing” that is free of politics, religion, biases, competition and judgment and offers everyone the opportunity to participate to their personal best. It brings people together for a common purpose and goal that benefits their life and those around them. And, that is why kids (and adults) are happy when they participate and want more when it’s over. It’s Maslow’s hierarchy of needs.
