TOPS (Take Off Pounds Sensibly)
There's nothing more refreshing than seeing sweet signs of
spring, like a flower beginning to bud or a sprout just starting
to peek up through the dirt. These signs are great reminders
that now is the perfect time to plant our own "Seeds of
Change" by "Springing into Action" with TOPS. Spring is the
season for new beginnings and new commitments. We all
know that healthy habits don't just appear overnight. They
need a foundation or roots to grow. Lasting change begins
with small goals and simple tools for better nutrition.
TOPS will be holdings Zoom meetings on Thursday from
10 to 11 am until our community gets back to normal and
it's safe for clubs to start meeting again. We invite you to
join us on Zoom each week. Our meetings are fun! A great
opportunity to visit, share and support each other.
TOPS membership is affordable at only $32 a year, which
gives you six wonderful TOPS magazines a year and access
to our informational TOPS website.
Let us all try for a better and healthy 2021. This is a great
time to spend on You!
Stay well! Stay safe! Wear your mask! Get your
vaccination!
