On July 17th, the Community Advisory Board (CAB) held a dinner and program celebrating another successful year with the Journey of Hope project and the culmination of their booklet, full of nutrition tips, information about the Community Advisory Board and healthy recipies donated by the CAB and modified by Mount Mary College Dietetics students.The event which was emceed by Sharon Garrett, Co-investigator of the project, was very well attended and made even more special with the appearance of former Intergenerational Program/Special Events Coordinator Ms. Denise Wooten.
Coordination of the event went off without a hitch due to the talents of the CAB members, Ms. Lynette Eubanks (Intergenerational/Youth Services Program Coordinator), Sharon Garrett and Kasandra Tarkington (Family Liason).
The CAB members were each given awards for all their contributions to the project and the board itself along with a blue Agape Community Center polo shirt.All of the participants of the event were given copies of the booklet in hope that they too would share the knowledge of healthy living and good nutrition.
