Announcing the Annual APCO 2021 Walk It Out Challenge!
Back by popular demand, come participate in some friendly competition with your peers as you "walk it out" and work your way up the leaderboard to win prizes.
APCO will be giving out free Bluetooth activity trackers to the first 150 participants that come to the Walk It Out Challenge booth located at the the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, in the Main Lobby.
Activity trackers will be available for pick up starting on Saturday, August 14, at 2:00 p.m. CT.
