COUNTY LIFE
Walk, talk launching April 8
Everyone starts the year out with new fitness and nutrition goals, but by the middle of the year we lose sight of those.
Here is your opportunity to keep working toward your lifestyle change goals. The Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service is launching Walk and Talk, an eight-week program encouraging exercise and healthy eating.
The program consists of weekly nutrition tips to help participants move toward a healthier weight and includes a weekly weight check-in, weekly challenge to “stay the course,” healthy recipes and tips, exercise resources and a weight-loss planner. Weekly door prizes and incentives will be given to participants.
The series will kick off at 9 a.m. on April 8 at the Bowie Senior Center with a nutrition tip followed by a walking fitness component. The group will meet Monday, Wednesday and Friday to walk in the park.
Walk and Talk is a great free program. Bring a friend or family member, or meet a new friend here. It’s always easier to reach your goals when you have additional support. All course materials will be provided by the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service, Montague County office.
Those with questions may call Melanie Potter, county extension agent at 894-2831 or call the senior center at 872-4500.

Once more we pose that question to Bowie third graders, who share their very colorful, helpful, unique and always hilarious recipes and procedures to create the best bird for the family dinner.
Enjoy their recipe suggestions as you sit down with family and friends this week for Thanksgiving. Hopefully it will bring a smile. Special thanks to Stephanie Crabtree, Karina Carter and Bailey Bolton for allowing their students to take part in this longtime Bowie News tradition. We tried to use as many as space allowed, thanks to all the kids.
Here are just a few:
Do you like turkey? I’m am going to teach you how to cook it. First,you go get your ingredients by going to buy a turkey from Walmart. Get your pan out and put the non-stick spray on the pan. Put the turkey on top of the pan.
Next, you put your turkey on the grill at 290 degrees for 30 minutes. While the turkey cooks, get your side food together. Next, set up your table. Then you put all of your food on the table. Sit down and enjoy your meal. Wasn’t that yummy?
