Take Off Pounds Sensibly Chapter 0233 of Houlton met at the Aldergate building on High Street for its Friday, Aug. 16 meeting. Eleven members were weighed; two of these were KOPS (Keep Off Pounds Sensibly).
Loser of the week was Mildred Gagnon with Lois Downing as runner-up. The skinny dish was held over and Marsha Reed won the 50/50 drawing. Diane Folsom, leader, had charge of the meeting.
Reports were read by Joanne Scott and Janette Nelson gave a financial report. Denise Clark offered the secretary’s minutes in place of absent Cheryl. Diane read a thank you note from Janice Cote, area captain, who was our guest the previous week.
An invitation to Joyce Estey’s birthday party on August 17 is extended to all members and was announced by Lois. Cheryl Richards read a story, helping her acquire ‘’fleas’’ in the current contest. The program presented by Diane was on stone fruits such as plums, peaches, nectarines, and grapes. She had a collection of the fruit and everybody got to take some home plus individual yogurt and graham crackers for sprinkles. It was a fun program.
The next meeting is August 23 at the same location. If you need information about the chapter, you may call Charlotte Marley at 757-8483 or Betty Ivey at 532-9653. The 0233 chapter meets every Friday morning at 8-8:45 for weigh-in and a meeting starting at 9 and ending an hour later. Come, enjoy and take off weight.
