You could do this: The fellow Bs at Balcom Agency did extensive Oxfordian research (probably Wikipedia) and learnt that office wellness programs reduce sick days on average by 28 percent, every $1 spent on wellness saves $3.78 and companies with wellness programs experience an increase in productivity. So the Bs had a wellness month with everyone getting a Fitbit, adding a "brain food" snack bar, getting a visit from a dietician and having walking meetings. And more. This month, everyone is healthier. Balcom lost so much weight that it totaled a loss of 15 FTEs, which made payroll very lean. Another month and Balcom will just disappear. To celebrate its success, the original Bs dined at Texas de Brazil.  

Sleeper ... in more ways than one: The Chamber's 2014 annual report, written by David A. House and designed by J.O., came from nowhere to earn a national ACE Award of Excellence from the American Advertising Federation.  

Teed up: J.R. (Dutch?) Holland has metal-iron(s) focus. The Director of Development for The First Tee of Fort Worth played 153 holes during its annual golf marathon this month and raised nearly $7,000. In total, the golf marathoners played more than 3,100 holes and raised $125,000.

Penny for your thoughts: After 14 laborious, but "joyous" years (she has to say that in the exit interview), Pennie Blossom, Director of Member Programs, is retiring at the end of June from the Chamber. She oversees the Area Councils and Women Influencing Business groups and she has been a top 5k walker on the Chamber team.

Magic Mic: CBS-ex Bob Schieffer is a few weeks ahead of Pennie into retirement, but it's never too late to hear about his first paid gig from marketing guru John Fletcher: "My father, the late Earle Fletcher, gave Bob his first paid job in broadcasting at KXOL 1360. Dad was driving down University Drive in 1961 one evening and heard Bob on KTCU, the student station at TCU. Dad pulled into a Skelly gas station and used the pay phone to call the TCU studios and speak with Bob. Bob came in the next day for an interview and was hired."
