Discussing the Results of the July School Lunch Survey

In July, we alerted you to a visioning workshop in October that would take a closer look at how we in New Mexico could bring healthy and sustainable food to our school lunches.  
 
Well, October is just two days away, and it's time to start thinking about joining the discussion, which will take place in just a few weeks.
 
If you already marked your calendar, this is a friendly reminder. If this is the first time you've heard about this visioning workshop, you are cordially invited to join in the dialogue.  Here are the details:

 
DATE: October 22nd, 9:00 A.M.-Noon

WHERE: Harwood Art Center, 1114 7th NW, Albuquerque

The event is free and open to the public

Organizers plan to bring data collected from a recent survey to guide the discussion.  Many of you probably participated in the survey, which was sent out in July.

And if all this seems somewhat familiar, this visioning workshop represents the next step in the community discussion that was started last February.
