Key to weight loss success

Judy Miller presented Frankie Marquart a "Key" to weight loss success.
Judy was presented with her key from Kay Faulstick when Kay became a KOPS member, so in turn Judy passed on the "Key" symbol to Frankie.  Good Luck Frankie.  
Frankie later in the month made KOPS.  That's the Key To Weight Loss Success. 

KOPS

We had 4 ladies who "Achieved My Goal" and are now in KOPS.  They will have their induction ceremony at the 2017 ARD.
