At the beginning of the month, our Healthy Lifestyles Employee Resource Group challenged the entire HH team to a 5-minute plank challenge. Six brave Maryland Region team members took on the task and showed up for themselves this morning to put their training to the test! Our winner, Kurt, blew the challenge out of the water! Special shout out to Greg and Ronni, who came in second and third! Congratulations to everyone who participated, and we look forward to seeing the results from our other regions.

Hear some words about the event from one of the event's panelists!
I was honored to represent the DTC Partnership last night at the Baltimore Banner's first ever event in Howard County. It was great to be on a panel with Tom Coale, Calvin Ball, and Darshni Patel, MPA and moderated by Julie Bykowicz to share the awesome things happening in Downtown Columbia. If I could condense my comments to just a few sentences, it's this: "The pandemic changed what people want in a community and what businesses want for their employees and customers. A community like Downtown Columbia is exactly what is wanted – the perfect blend of urban vitality and suburban amenities nestled between Baltimore and DC. Five years ago, this neighborhood behind us (the Merriweather District) didn’t even exist. It was just the gravel and grass parking lots of Merriweather Post Pavilion. Thanks to the boldness of Howard Hughes Holdings Inc., we have 12 new restaurants, 700 residences, a 12-story office tower (that opened in March of 2020 and is fully leased), and a park that is active on any random Tuesday or when it’s hosting signature events like Books in Bloom, the Discover Downtown Columbia 5k, or the Color Burst Concert Series."
