The Meeting was called to order by Jessie at 5:55 PM.
Roll Call
Roll was called by Darcy. Present were 13 TOPS for a total of 13. We lost 20.6 lbs and gained 11.8 lbs for a net loss of 8.8 lbs. What a great loss. Way to go TOPS members!
Darcy was the TOPS Best Loser and Helen was the Fresh weight Best Loser. Great job to you both!
New Business
Tammy moved and Betty M. seconded that the chapter pay for ribbons bought at SRD. Motion carried.
The summer potluck picnic will be next week (June 4) at Couch park. Bring your favorite healthy snack to share.
The June 18 meeting will be a busy one. We will have Betty K.’s official graduation, present the chapter division winners, and games if time permits. This is definitely a meeting you don’t want to miss!
SRD 2015
I think everyone who went was inspired in their weight loss efforts at SRD, and so we had a lot of discussion about SRD 2015. The workshops were great, and the talks and awards were inspiring. There was the always popular Aqua Zumba on Thursday evening. Friday we had workshops, including how to move more, and “The Price is Right” bargain fashion show. Members sported everything from $3 outfits to a usually high priced suit for $15. TOPS members ARE the super-shoppers! Beverly Staniack, the TOPS coordinator for our region, gave a very inspiring update, and hearing the stories of division and seeing the reaction of other award winners was priceless.
I saved the best for last: Patty won first place in her division at SRD! What a great accomplishment. Way to go Patty! I will do an entire blog post about SRD, so stay tuned!
SRD 2016
With SRD 2015 just finished, Patty is already gearing up for next year. SRD 2016 will be Mother’s Day weekend, and a quilt made from TOPS t-shirts will be raffled. Members will be asked to donate a TOPS t-shirt for the quilt.
Fun Day
The next Fun Day is June 27th in Blackwell. The theme is “Sock Hop,” a 50’s theme. A theme for our basket of “paper products” was discussed. Karla volunteered to get a basket from Dollar Tree.
