TOPS Chapter 9319 El Dorado Springs met in the United Methodist Church, 201 E Broadway on Thursday June 20, 2019 for their weekly weigh in, and meeting.

Leader Sheryl Ann called our meeting to order and Kay led us in singing “It’s In Our Hands.” We said our TOPS & KOPS pledges.

Marilyn led us in some exercises.

Sheryl led us in roll call & walking report. Twenty-seven weighed in today and the chapter had a net loss of 11.6 lbs. Best loser was Sandi with a loss of 8.2 lbs.  Congratulations Sandi!

Marble game:  Cheryl won the right to draw for a marble but did not get the winning one. Pot was at $40 this week.

Robbie reported on TOPS contest, Marie and Juanita got to draw from the prize box.

Susan and Melissa reported on the TOPS Summer contest. Susan thanked everyone for coming to them to report food journal and weight. If you DO NOT participate in the food tasting please report to them, otherwise it will be assumed everyone “tasted” the sample.

Sheryl Ann had the program today. It started with a skit. We are like a box of crayons it takes each color.  Your chapter needs everyone to participate. Sheryl Ann has served two years as leader; a new leader must be elected. Remember, if you do not have access to internet but would still like to be leader you can do it.  An inter-net designate will be assigned for emails to go to. Not only “Officer” jobs need filling but other smaller jobs need volunteers to keep the chapter running smoothly.

Laura Hicks brought the “tasting food” today. Ten spice chicken wings, they were so good. She brought extra spice mix for those who wanted to take home and use.

Carol will bring the tasting sample next week.

With no other business meeting was adjourned with our motto “IF IT IS TO BE IT IS UP TO ME”.
