Dear Michael
I have the pleasure to inform you that in France we are organizing a national event for World Milk Day (1st June 2015) that will be similar to what we organized for the first time in 2014. Opening the factories to the public was a success last year. Nearly 10 000 people visited our plants. Nine plants will be open to the public this year around 1 June. It's a way to explain to consumers that liquid milk is a natural product, how it is packaged in cartons or bottles in a very secure context, with controlled tracability.
As well as the visit, people will be given pedagogic information (nutrition, safety,...). Funny animations, especially for children, will be organized in most plants. And last but not least, samples of different milks (plain or flavoured) will be offered, a very positive surprise for a lot last year, even for those who will say you "I don't like milk...."
Our organization is developping a network approach with several partners who will participate in the organization. I want to specifically thank the firms Tetra Pak and SIG Combibloc, our main partners.
All information about our French event for World Milk day is accessible on our web site: www.journeemondialedulait.fr<http://www.journeemondialedulait.fr>
I remain at your disposal for any inqueries.
Kind regards
Anne-Sophie Royant

Dear Members,

As we move into the year, I would like to remind everyone to mark World Milk Day (1 June) and World School Milk Day (30 September) in their diaries.

Remember, it's up to you to decide what type of celebration you wish to hold - this could be anything from a Press Release to a national event.

In order to get some inspiration, details of previous years' events are contained at:

15th World Milk Day, 1 June
http://www.fao.org/economic/est/est-commodities/dairy/school-milk/15th-world-milk-day/en/

16th World School Milk Day, 30 September
http://www.fao.org/economic/est/est-commodities/dairy/school-milk/en/

As you will see, these Days have been around for fifteen years - so children who participated in the first school milk days would now be young adults.  Therefore, new ideas to bring spontaneity and excitement are always welcome.

Also, once you have planned a celebration, we would be very happy to hear about it, so that we can publicise it via the e-network and provide inspiration to others.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
