GSNA 2018 NSLW Kick Off Luncheon - September 27 - Macon, GA
REGISTRATION DEADLINE: September 14, 2018
GSNA is ready to kick off the celebration of National School Lunch week 2018 with School Nutrition professionals from all over the state! There is going to be “Lots2Love” as we celebrate School Lunch and the people that make it happen. We will recognize the work that dedicated Georgia school nutrition professionals do to have award winning programs. Plan to be there as we recognize our 2018 USDA Best Practices Award winners and celebrate those that tell your stories with the GSNA Media Awards. Our informative training sessions designed with YOU in mind will help you stay “Serviced Minded” and “Hunger Focused” and give you “Lots2Love” throughout the year!

Breakfast After the Bell – Breakfast Grant for Schools
The No Kid Hungry foundation has funding available to support schools that are interested in adopting or expanding a breakfast after the bell program.
Grants will support schools with the purchase of approved equipment, materials and initiatives facilitating breakfast after the bell delivery models (such as breakfast in the classroom, grab and go, or second chance breakfast) in an effort to increase student participation in school breakfast.

Do You Have Good News?
Is your school using a new, interactive menu Web site and/or a menu app this year? We want to hear about it!!! Please share with Robby & Emily at CJ Public Relations (CJPR)! New technology is a hot topic and media is interested (just like this story from last month in Las Vegas ). CJPR is happy to help spread the word to your local media outlets about what's new in your program and showcase all the great work you do. E-mail rpiazzaroli@cjpr.com and esorensen@cjpr.com
