From its very first meeting, the Summer Meal Program Coalition set forth goals to provide summer meal programs with easily accessible information on nutrition education and physical activity.

In Summer 2010 and then again in Summer 2011, we have partnered with the Network for a Healthy California to provide summer meal sponsors and sites with free materials and resources on Power Play! In 2010, we also focused on ReThink Your Drink.

Power Play! for Summer Meal Programs Webinars

In May 2011, the California Summer Meal Program Coalition sponsored three webinars on Power Play!, each with its own regional focus. Power Play! is a successful statewide program that provides free nutrition education and physical activity opportunities for children 9-11 years old, though the program can be adapted for other near-age groups.
