Over 100 people attended the Queen of Hearts luncheon Feb. 14 at the Knox United Church here.
United Church Women of Knox and Alsfeldt ladled a variety of hot homemade soups and served platters of sandwiches at the tables decorated with hearts and flowers. Heart shaped sugar cookies and fresh fruit salad were served for dessert.
All kinds of literature was available regarding the Heart and Stroke Foundation, including information on recovery from heart issues, strokes, preventative care and exercise, weight, diet and stress issues.
There were Healthy Waists tape measure packages, heart attack and stroke warning signs and action cards.
The HealthSmart Fitness wheel still shows that no matter how healthy the food, the number of calories, grams of fat, and grams of fibre reveal there are still minutes of exercise to consider and endure to sustain or reduce one’s present weight.
Tote bags filled with a mug, book, pen and a water bottle were won by people who lifted the table cloth to reveal a red paper heart taped to the table at their place setting.
Convenor Brenda Cummings was pleased to send a healthy donation to the North Wellington Chapter of the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
