Let’s Team up to Cleanup

On Saturday, September 30, 2017, MoCo Life 910 will be participating in the NC Department of Transportation’s Fall LITTER SWEEP.  MoCo Life 910’s stretch of highway is Sedberry Rd. in Biscoe, NC beginning at the Auto Zone.

The Adopt-A-Highway Program (AAH) was established in 1988 by the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) in response to growing public concern regarding litter along the state’s highways. The AAH Program is administered by the NCDOT Office of Beautification, and is a joint effort between community volunteers and the NCDOT.  Its purpose is to decrease the amount of litter on North Carolina’s roadsides and improve the beauty and quality of the environment.

MoCo Life 910 made a commitment to become active participants in the Adopt-A-Highway program because, as a part of our mission to empower the community, we feel that we have to “take care of home”.  As an Adopt-A-Highway participant, it is our duty to keep our neighborhoods and communities clean, and we need everyone to get involved.  Take the next step in joining us to make sure we are indeed taking care of home.

Not only will we play our part in cleaning and empowering the community, we will also get a great workout in as well (kill two birds with one stone).  Those who choose to join us for this event will receive certificates of participation from the Department of Transportation for their role in this important activity!  Join Us!  The community needs you!

MoCo Life 910 Launches a New Fitness Campaign

In keeping up with our mission to empower the community by preparing individuals to live healthy and productive lives; mentally, physically, and emotionally; we have officially launched our health and wellness campaign, MoCo Life 910 Fitness.  Montgomery County currently has higher rates than the state averages for diabetes prevalence, hypertension, diseases of the lung, and obesity; we’re here to change that.  In order to have a productive community, the community must be healthy.

The purpose of #MoCoLife910Fitness is to offer support for healthy lifestyle changes and fitness goals.  We are here to encourage and support one another on our journeys to health and wellness.  We are using this as a platform to show the importance and benefits of living healthy, active lifestyles.  Members of the group are invited to share their weight loss goals and stories, share tips, and workout routines.  Members also share photos of themselves pre/during/post workout.  This group is an exciting way to get supportive tips from those dealing with similar struggles as you when you feel like you’ve hit a plateau in your fitness goals.  There will be some exciting, innovative ideas and activities coming from this campaign to help jump start fitness journeys, change bad habits, or add some spark to your current routine.

The response has already been amazing and we don’t want anyone to be left out!

Join us on our journey.

These days Unity isn’t a very strong word.  Somehow we’ve forgotten what it even means.  With all of the violence against one another and our friends and family losing their lives from senseless acts of violence, unity is the farthest thought from our minds.  We are beginning to harbor negativity towards those who are meant to protect and serve or trying to find a suitable place to point the blame for all of the darkness.

At MoCo Life 910, we feel that it is important for us to create unity in our communities and not division so we decided to put our words into action.  We have officially planned our first annual Unity March on August 13, 2016.

The Unity March is geared towards creating solidarity between our community members and county/city/town officials.  Upon completion of the March, we wanted to continue the vision of unity by bringing the community together at the park where our volunteers will work to provide free food, water, and school supplies for the Montgomery County Residents in attendance.

The success of this event will be credited largely to our sponsors and volunteers who lend their names, financial support, and time to this event. The money we raise will help fund the materials and resources needed to make this event a success.   For more information about how you can support this event, we can be contacted by email at mocolife910@gmail.com.
