Take Your Parents to Lunch Day

You probably already know that October 15-19th, 2012 is National School Lunch Week but did you know October 17th, 2012 is National Take Your Parents to Lunch Day? It’s a great way to promote your child nutrition program (and the new menu items!) to the parents in your district. And we’ve tracked down all of the resources you need to help get you started.

Visit the School Nutrition Association Resource Center for a complete checklist to plan and promote the event, and they even recommend you invite government representatives to dine at your schools as well. MyHealthySchool.com also has a lot of great resources for your schools to use!

If you plan on inviting parents, tell us about how your planning is going or your National School Lunch Week festivities and you could be featured on our website! You can also easily share your experience with us on Facebook or Twitter.
