Way to finish strong!
HEAR LUCILLE YOUNG’S STORY
After having heart surgery, this vivacious and dedicat-ed team member returned to our Fit and Strong class with her usual beautiful smile and greetings to all. She was our inspiration because she kept going with her doctor’s blessings and guidance and encouraged us to continue in spite of her health issues. It appears she is healing rather quickly and continues to amaze us with her total miles logged each week. Here’s to Lucile Young, our outstanding member who did her part to get our Dream Team across Texas approximately five times!

Candy says… I have had so much fun and have been so inspired with a great group of girls the Aqua Strutter's. Most of us are in our sixties and I must say I've done quite well. We sure enjoyed the ride.
