Following is a link to a great article written by Master Food Volunteer, Lisa Metzger, from Arlington/Alexandra about a recent program, FAN (Food and Nutrition) Camp held for children enrolled at Barcroft Elementary School in Arlington. Master Food Volunteers work with FCS Agent, Katie Strong, to teach nutrition using some fun games and hands-on cooking experiences to make banana pudding in a bag, salsa, and apple wraps.
This is a great example of some wonderful programs our FCS Agents and Master Food Volunteers facilitate with all age groups and provides inspiration to think of new ways to teach these important skills that promote a healthy lifestyle.
