Fun Nutritious Food Program
with Manners & Health Lesson

sponsored by Jumpstart Food Strengthening Program Windsor

Tuesdays,  Wednesdays and Thursdays: 
3:45 - 4:30 pm After school snack and lesson in nutrition 

Saturdays: 9:45 am breakfast 
Saturdays:  12:00 noon lunch

Provided freely for needy children and youth ages 6 - 17 years old.  

  

 

Fruit juice smoothies, and healthy food & snacks provided as needed for children in the community, or those coming after school for dance classes and flag drills.  

Colleen Kosti discovered that there was a great need for her students coming to flag classes, to be energized and strengthened physically before training in the flags.  

M
any of the children were very weak and unmotivated from poor eating habits, and found it challenging to learn the art of flag twirling, so she decided that this was to become a pre-class regimen - to serve healthy, energizing snacks, or full meals for the needy children.  In doing this the results have been tremendous, and also taking this time to develop social skills, conversation and education on nutrition and health - has been a fulfillment to her vision in developing excellence in life skills.   

So now, instead of hamburgers
and snacks like chips and candy bars brought in by hungry students - Spirit of Excellence Creativity Training Center provides good healthy training and food for the after school students.  

The 'Sunshine Juice Bar' was opened at Summer Camp Xcellence 2005 - and will continue to be open during all classes and for the food programs throughout the year.  

 

Thank you for the generous sponsorship for 2006 & 2007 by Jump Start Nutritious Food program, Windsor.
