At our meeting, we discussed our recruitment info meeting that will be on Tuesday March 1st at 4pm in CSU 238. We would like it if you could talk to your classrooms about ESG. Susan will have business cards printed out for you to hand out to people. They will be in the Health ed Workroom in the ESG mailbox. The Workroom is right across from Schelberg Gym in the hallway with the orange floors on the second floor. It is very helpful if we have current ESG members talking to classrooms to pull more people into the group. I will also send the business cards out in the email and have them posted to the documents on this blog if you would rather print them out yourself!
We talked more about the Food and fitness expo on April 5th. We got the go ahead to make the trail mix for students. If anyone works at a grocery store, we would appreciate it if you could see if they could donate any trail mix supplies such as cheerios, chex mix, dried fruit or anything else you think would work for make your own trail mix.

It is very important if you are interested in selling concessions to go to this website and take the survey.
