I Am In The Food Group!

For the activities night (it is yet to be named, we are suppose to vote tomorrow) I am in the food/nutrition group. For the night we are going to set up a table and have a bunch of healthy snacks, that way kids can try different things and find out what they do and don't like! Maybe some kids will eat apples for snack instead of chips now! I have to admit being in this group is a little stressful because we're still trying to come up with a perfect way to actually get food...it's very hard to get people to bring their own food because we'd have to decide if it was mandatory for them to bring something, or just a suggestion. There’s also a time problem, we would have to go to every classroom and explain everything to them and we really just don't have that kind of time! Right now we are thinking of calling grocery stores and smoothie place to ask if they would donate food, we are trying to be very optimistic. We think they will say yes if we offer to do advertising for them (ex. "Here’s a very healthy smoothie that tastes great even though it is mad of all natural fruits and if you like it make sure to visit the place that provided all of these smoothies for us, smoothie king!"). I will be looking up the phone numbers tonight so we can make the calls tomorrow. Wish us luck!!!!!!
