Helping Hands Make Life Easier

It never ceases to amaze me how truly wonderful our members here at Curves Dearborn are. They relate to each other so well.

A few weeks ago a member, Judith, was on the circuit with another member, Debbie, and I was in the center of the circuit conversing with both of them. Judy was talking about the family reunion that would soon be taking place in Cincinnati with her family. There was to be a dinner on Friday night and a picnic on Saturday. Judith, and the people in charge of putting the picnic together, were concerned about how they were going to keep all the food cold as a hot weekend was predicted. Debbie, who works in a school kitchen, told Judith that a kids round plastic pool works great for keeping food cold. Just fill it with ice and you can put your food dishes in the pool and everything will keep cold for a long time. Just keep adding ice if you have to. Judith thought that sounded like a terrific idea. I told Judith that I just happened to have a plastic pool in my garage and she was welcome to have it. I brought it into the club and gave it to her and she took it to the picnic. When Judith returned to Curves the following week she said the pool idea worked wonderfully well, just as Debbie had said it would.

Isn't it terrific how, just by sharing our thoughts and ideas with one another, we can make such a significant and positive difference in someone's life and they in ours. Can it get any better than that?
