New Year - New Beginnings!

Happy New Year! Healthy New Year as well! Now that the calendar pages have turned to January again, the holiday parties are over with, the cookies, candies, and other calorie-laden goodies of the season have been eaten, habits have been broken...and hopefully, resolutions have been made. If you're one of many who say you're going to eat better/exercise more in the New Year, the county has two exciting opportunities starting next week to put you on that road to success!

Check out the Weight Watchers Open House on Monday, Jan. 6 at 5:00 p.m. in the Wickham Annex's Multipurpose Room at the Hanover Courthouse complex. Learn about their exciting new Simple Start program, which gives you two weeks of easy, fast-to-fix, delicious meal ideas to jump start that first-of-the-year weight loss you've been working towards. Join the Weight Watchers At Work program, too, which will meet on Mondays at the same location. Weigh-ins start at 5:15 p.m. weekly. Contact Brenda Setelin at 804-365-6084 for info.

An exciting new session of Zumba Fitness kicks off at various locations throughout Hanover County for six fun weeks beginning Monday, Jan. 6. Check out the class schedule (there are about nine held each week) and register directly with Christie Tripp, the instructor, by calling 804-306-1668. As always, 50% financial payroll incentives for County employees - including Library staff! - apply with minimum attendance requirements!

Join a class, buddy up with a friend, just get up off that couch and move. Make 2014 your healthiest, happiest year yet!
