PROGRAM
Joy introduced Jaclyn Willms, her personal health and fitness trainer. She put us through a hands on demonstration of how sitting has become the new smoking. Get up and move it to reduce the risk of diabetes, heart attack and more. Good posture was also part of the agenda. Janet, our fitbit guru, thanked Jaclyn.
HAPPY $
Many for Jaclyn.
Sandi happy to report that each time a member participates in a District activity (ex. District Conference, foundation dinner etc) he/she receives a wooden nickel/penny. There is some sort of prize at the end of the Rotary year.
