Locals looking to lose some weight or just make 2010 a healthier year may be interested in Newville’s TOPS Club.

The international weight loss support group, appropriately called “Take Off Pounds Sensibly,” meets on Tuesday evenings at the First United Presbyterian Church, 111 W. Big Spring Avenue, and this coming Feb. 9, the group will be holding an open house for anyone interested in finding more about TOPS.

“We’re going to try to get some brochures out like at the doctor’s office or down at Saylors in notice of it,” said elected group leader Shirley Weston, whose been a member of TOPS for 33 years.

Meeting in Newville since 1976, and nationally since 1948, the group presents a unique resource for those looking to become healthier, says one member. With a $26 annual fee plus 50 cents per week dues, the group is open to everyone, very affordable, local and a great support system.
