Nine people graduated from the Coronary Health Improvement Project (CHIP) program in Goldendale, led by Calvin and Faye Fischer.
Meetings were held four nights a week for four weeks. Each night a CHIP video was shown featuring Hans Diehl, Dr.HSc. At the beginning of the program, people were weighed and blood was taken. At the end, the same tests proved that cholesterol, triglycerides, blood pressure and heart rate were all down. People also lost weight. Participants reported that they walked a combined total of 152 miles.
