KING CITY — City of King employees Leah Amaya, Yolanda Cervantes, Adriana Granados and Yesenia Rivas with Elisa Martinez of King City Police Department recently received their prizes for winning the team category in Transportation Agency for Monterey County’s Move It Monterey County Challenge this October.

The City of King’s A-Team was awarded Nov. 29 with a $200 gift certificate to Tacos La Potranca De Jalisco, their local restaurant of choice.

Cervantes and Granados also tied for third place in the individuals category and chose to receive $50 gift certificates from King City restaurant The Cork & Plough.

The goal of the month-long challenge was to encourage anyone who lives, works or attends school in the county to get out and move their bodies for health, mind and community. Participants competed in competitions for individuals, teams, schools and worksites to win prizes.

The next Move It Monterey County Challenge is planned for spring 2023.
