Happy Losers

8 years ago

On Nov. 16 the weight group called The Happy Losers held their weekly meeting at the United Baptist Church vestry in Island Falls.

Jackie Pratt, the leader, opened the meeting and welcomed members, followed by the pledge and roll call. Nine members weighed in and attended the meeting.

Judi MacArthur was the loser of the week, and Dotty Rand was the runner-up. Great job, ladies.

Reports were given by the secretary and treasurer for the week.

The leader led the program for the week. Her topic was Thanksgiving foods. Pumpkin is good for diabetes; cranberry and walnuts help the brain; and corn and greens help with bone density. This was great information.

New members are welcome to the group, which meets every Wednesday. Weigh-in is 8-8:30 a.m. and the meeting starts at 8:30. Call 365-4884 for more information on The Happy Losers.

Everyone have a wonderful Thanksgiving with family and friends.
