Hello Ladies,

I hope you are all well on this beautiful Sat. evening. I am sitting
at home and not able to join in the moonlight ski as I have a husband
who had a very nasty fall and a buise that is the mother of all
bruises. It goes down his left side right to his ankle. He is a good
patient. Thank goodness!
I also am home because of a nasty sinus infection. I fortunately am on
antibiotics and will no doubt be as good as new in a few days. I wish
I could say the same for hubby!

Now our next meeting is on Feb. 19th and thanks to those who have
responded. We are going to be selling memberships for the following
year. The cost will be $10.00 same as previous years.

Also our Women's Wellness Day will be April 21st, tickets will be sold
for that day as well on the 19th. Please reserve your ticket early as
we sale out quickly. Our 3 speakers this year are on


Audiology Topic "What You Always wanted to Know but never Asked"
presenter Sohie Wardeel

Personal Trainer Topic" Eat More, Weigh Less, Feel Fit!" presenter
Nathalie Markoff

Musical Motivator "Living, Tomorrow, Today!" presenter Carla Beck-
(Music to Your Ears Power to Your Life) Carla is also known as "The
Canadian Girl" look her up on the internet.

We are very happy to be at the Bristol Town Hall for our Day of
Women's Wellness.
This day will also be a Celebration of our 3rd Feel Fit Year. We will
be recognizing Bracelet letter winners. Please email me if you are
qualifying for a letter in advance.

We also are looking at developiing a new core group to help with
planning etc for meetings. If you are interested please let me know.
New and fresh ideas are always welcome.

Deb Powell a Feel Fit member will help start a race walking group in
the spring. Let her know if you are interested.
Deb also mentioned another hike to Mont O'Brien around the 8th of May
before the bugs get out. Interested?? I would also like to see a
hiking club meet every Wed.am to go on a hike to Gatineau Park or on
the railroad bed or some exquiste area.

You will notice that I am calling you "Feel Fit Ladies" and that is
because the girls were called that at Community Curling Bonspiel. I
like the sound of ladies better than girls. What do you think??
The curling ladies did a fine job and we should be proud of their
effort. Now speaking of Curling The Red Hatters are having a fun day
at the Curling rink on March 21st. They would like us to join them
starting with lunch ($5.00) and an afternoon of fun curling.

I have been reading some good books lately and one is on "Well Being".
It states in the book that
"Other people are the best antidote to the downs of life and the
single most reliable up."

So on that note I will end and ask you to bring a friend to our next
meeting or call a member you know that has not been out in awhile .
You may be the "other people" in their life that get them back on
track. Emmotionall Fitness is an importamt part of "Feeling Fit!"
Every time you feel joy it is with "other people"
I hope "Feel Fit" can bring some joy into your life. Remember we need
you and you might need us! Josee Gravelline is our speaker she works
at Studio 332 and does Turbo Jam and Boot Camp.

Somewhat Fitfull"
