Family and Consumer Sciences.
Social Events
- Holiday Dinner-
in December
This informal meeting is a
great chance to eat good
food, chat with fellow
members, and have fun. The
association provides the
main dish and members sign
up to bring in side dishes
and desserts. There is also
a white elephant exchange,
so find a suitable
"present," and wrap it up
for the party. It doesn't
have to be anything fancy.
Previous members have given
old textbooks, yo-yo's, and
even toilet paper! Look for
a sign up sheet on the
Dietetics bulletin board.
- Carry-in Dinner-
in April
At the end of the year, Kim
Pike graciously hosts a
carry-in dinner at her
house. Mrs. Pike provides
the main dish and members
sign up to bring side
dishes.
National Nutrition Month-
The month of March.
The Dietetic Association
sponsors many activities during
the month of March for National
Nutrition month. These

Month. Happy March! This month
