Our “Northern” Boot Campers weighed in for the last time before fall.  The May-June Rogers City Boot Camp was filled with veterans who enjoy the opportunity to stay active and aren’t as focused on dropping pounds and inches, but there were still a few new Boot Campers looking for results.  This session, 35.6 pounds and 51 inches were lost.  The next Rogers City Boot Camp will start in September 2009.  During the summer there will be a group exercise class every Tuesday at 6pm.  The cost is $6.
