Michael,



To celebrate World School Milk Day, we sent the following notice to 19,000 schools:



"Every year on the last Wednesday of September, schools in more than 40 countries celebrate World School Milk Day (WSMD). This international event, actively promoted by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations<http://app.bronto.com/public/?q=ulink&fn=Link&ssid=10239&id=fzsh9zfcs3f7emesss8v0akn3e9fb&id2=ddkpa0fwrce1clgoy5c4u5cs4hcam&subscriber_id=eg4kg5uxyehjrj3onquz3r2l3xb48&delivery_id=awnaheiapterwyrsygbfcktokhgzbgm&tid=3.J_8.AysyrA.GxGE.Ahyv_A..A5MJAA.b..s.AVjd.a.U_-7eA.U_-7eA.3ThxKw>, acknowledges the hard work and dedication of dairy farm families and focuses attention on the health benefits of school milk.



There are a number of FREE online resources available to help your schools join in the celebration. Here are ways you can help your cafeteria managers plan their Fuel Up with Milk WSMD promotions.



  *   Share the WSMD activity tip sheet, morning announcement and bulletin board message templates.

  *   Download the WSMD banner for school celebrations.

  *   Print the new poster, Milk: A Nutrient Powerhouse, available in English and Spanish.

  *   Add the WSMD logo to September breakfast/lunch menus.

  *   Offer lesson plans and the Building Blocks of Milk activity to cafeteria managers and health/physical education (PE) teachers.



These resources and more are available at www.southeastdairy.org<http://app.bronto.com/public/?q=ulink&fn=Link&ssid=10239&id=fzsh9zfcs3f7emesss8v0akn3e9fb&id2=ahnhf4jqadoawrvw688va7kaog3k1&subscriber_id=eg4kg5uxyehjrj3onquz3r2l3xb48&delivery_id=awnaheiapterwyrsygbfcktokhgzbgm&tid=3.J_8.AysyrA.GxGE.Ahyv_A..A5MJAA.b..s.AVjd.a.U_-7eA.U_-7eA.3ThxKw<http://www.southeastdairy.org%3chttp:/app.bronto.com/public/?q=ulink&fn=Link&ssid=10239&id=fzsh9zfcs3f7emesss8v0akn3e9fb&id2=ahnhf4jqadoawrvw688va7kaog3k1&subscriber_id=eg4kg5uxyehjrj3onquz3r2l3xb48&delivery_id=awnaheiapterwyrsygbfcktokhgzbgm&tid=3.J_8.AysyrA.GxGE.Ahyv_A..A5MJAA.b..s.AVjd.a.U_-7eA.U_-7eA.3ThxKw>>. Share them with your school administrators and staff as you prepare to celebrate World School Milk Day."



We also offer visits by area dairy farmers who bring a cow or calf and talk to students about how milk is produced.



We are excited about celebrating the day!
