YOWZA!!! We are a-cruisin with the losin'!! The chapter had another great loss!

Bonnie lead the charge as our 'Best Loser'. She wants us to practice portion control and not to overindulge. Bonnie has been losing alot of weight recently and wore a special hat to celebrate!


The big story of the night was Ann C. graduating to KOPS status!!!!
And only in 10 months!!!

WAY TO GO ANN!!!

Nellie and Ann say the KOPS Pledge!

Ann practices her royal wave!

Mark presented the nights program about how astronauts stay fit in space. They lose muscle tone and significant bone density during prolonged stays in space. One way they keep their muscles and bones healthy is resistance training.

Here's a link to the same information: http://www.acefitness.org/getfit/RubrBndWkout.pdf


The TOPS 'Walk to SRD' in Orlando contest has some outstanding participants. Our chapter's standouts were:
