Wellness began in 2008 with the challenge of raising attention to the health and happiness of all in Perry County and especially Tell City. The Tell City City Council approved the formation of Wellness and each year our program has expanded into new ideas and ways to support health related projects. Bike rides, tree planting, running, swimming and t-shirts for numerous healthy causes has brought us to Wellness 2011.
