Myself, I'll use it to cast doubt on the surety of any self-righteous
vegetarians that try to preach to me! ( I can say that, since I was one once
myself!) ;-)

OTOH, it's still a good opportunity to talk about the benefits of whole foods
and local and sustainable agriculture...

Dear Friends in Anne Arundel County,

This is an email reminding you to sign my petition called "Nourishing
Our Children Campaign". I will be meeting soon with our County Council
Representative, Josh Cohen and need as many signatures as I can get..

Please take a moment to read about this important issue, and join me
in signing the petition. It takes just 30 seconds, but can truly make
a difference. We are trying to reach 1000 signatures - please sign here:

http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/nourishing-our-children-campaign

Once you have signed, you can help even more by asking your friends
and family to sign as well. They do not need to be a parent only an
Anne Arundel county citizen, as their tax dollars are helping to feed
the children in this community.
Thank you so much!

Nourishing Our Children Presentation -Saturday, February 9, 2:30PM

You are invited to a dynamic presentation that explains why many
traditional foods now considered unhealthy are, in fact, vital to the
growth and intellectual development of our children.  The presentation
is given free of charge. Please bring a friend, this meeting will be
open to the public as well. The presentation will be held at the West
street library on Saturday, Feb. 9th from 2:30 to 4:30.

Nourishing Our Children is not just about identifying the dangers of
Oreos, cola, candy and other obvious junk foods. The campaign also
presents research illustrating how foods widely assumed to be
nutritional - including packaged foods commonly described as
"organic","natural" or "fortified" - are themselves heavily processed
and stripped of nutritional value. Although these labels provide a
convenient way for parents to determine which foods to buy, the items
associated with those labels often betray the standard of optimal
nutrition.

Hi All,

 

Thank You, Thank You to those of you who are volunteering at this Kids Being Healthy Expo, tomorrow (Thurs May 10) to Sat May 12 at the Baltimore Convention Center  www.kidsbeinghealthyexpo.com    I VERY Much appreciate your willingness, generosity and support !!!!

 

For those of you who haven't volunteered yet, I wanted to copy you in on this email to encourage you to participate if you can, and to show you where we need help if you are available.  If you volunteer, you can also attend the conference and any of the presentations for free, including the premier of the 2 Angry Moms new movie about Food in Schools (Fri nite), Richard Simmons, Antonia Demas and many others !!

 

I have typed up our Schedule of Volunteers (so far) for our Weston A. Price Exhibit Booth.  I did not enter my name under all of the time slots that I can volunteer yet and Hillary Little is not scheduled yet but she will be there for at least 1 - 2 days too !!

 

My Goal is to have 2 people at the booth most of the time ... although I may need to leave for short periods of time to go to work (about 6 blocks away at the University of Maryland School of Nursing).  We will want to have 2 people there during the 12 noon - 1:30 timeslots each day since that's when attendees will have lunch and tour the Exhibit Hall.

 

They are expecting ~ 2000 - 2500 people to attend over the 3 days ... and Saturday may be the busiest day, since it's on the weekend.

 

You should be able to get your badge (which will say "Staff V.I.P.") at the Expo Registration area, at the Registation Table for Exhibitors.  Tell them that you are with the Weston A. Price Foundation Exhibit Booth.  We are allowed to have up to 5 volunteers at one time, so there will definitely be a badge available for you.

 

Our Exhibit Booth is:  # 646

 

Parking is available in nearby parking garages, some are more expensive than others.  I will email you with more information about this after I do some research on it.

 

Thanks Again for your Help !!  See the Schedule of Volunteers below, and the list of Volunteers phone numbers below that (included if we need it ... Please add any cell phone numbers to this list as well ... thanks!)

 

I look forward to seeing you there !! :):)

 

Sincerely,

Louise

I'm so sorry this got dumped.  Who or what is "FB"?
How can the government possibly monitor if people use
milk directly from their own animals?  Maybe I don't
want to know the answer, hmm?

Hey everyone. I got this message on one of my other lists I am
subscribed to and thought I'd forward it to all of you because I got
my CDs in the other day and think they're wonderful! Anyways, you
can get yours at http://www.freecdbooks.com. They're all free but
you still have to pay for shipping ($5) but it's way worth it.

Hello!  Just joined this weekend, after reading the Alert posting. So sorry I
missed the
hearing.  I checked the Maryland General Assembly site to see what happened, but
no info.
Can anyone give an update?
Thanks!
