The Association of Washington Cities (AWC) recently released a list of cities, towns, and other local government agencies that earned the distinguished WellCity designation for 2025, with the City of Snoqualmie among this year’s recipients. This is the second consecutive year Snoqualmie has earned the designation.
The recognition is given to entities that meet the AWC Employee Benefit Trust’s stringent WellCity standards and demonstrate a commitment to employee health. Employers that meet the WellCity standards earn a 2% discount on their medical premiums.
"The City of Snoqualmie employees' dedication to health and wellness is a testament to the success of our Wellness Program led by our Human Resources Department," said Mayor Katherine Ross. "This program not only helps our employees achieve their health goals but also delivers significant savings for our taxpayers."
WellCity recipients are part of the AWC Employee Benefit Trust (Trust), Washington State’s largest local government employee health benefit pool for cities, towns, and other local governments. The Trust provides health benefits to more than 270 public entities and more than 36,000 employees and family members across the state.
