Letter from the
President Hello TSNA
Family, Did you know
that TSNA, an affiliate of the School Nutrition Association, is one of
the
nation’s largest organizations of food and nutrition professionals? Did you also know that we have over 2,900
active members in Tennessee who are committed to promoting school
nutrition,
and the health and well-being of the children we serve?
TSNA continues to offers numerous opportunities
for continuing education, scholarships, and educational programs for
professional development. And, since our
membership includes all levels of school food service employees, I
encourage
you to talk to a non-TSNA member today and take a few minutes to share
about
all the great things that this Association has to offer. Stand
Up for School Nutrition is the theme of our
annual
membership drive that began June 1, 2011 and ends May 31, 2012. SNA serves as a voice for advancing good
nutrition for children and it is important that TSNA have members
behind that
voice as much as possible. There are
many opportunities for involvement and leadership in TSNA.
If you are interested in learning more about
how to be involved in the Association, please contact me Alison Pyron,
at pyrona@k12tn.net or give me a call at
731-772-9613. I
close in reminding you of this exciting time
for school nutrition as we confront a time of many changes. “The Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act” is now a
part of our history that will help shape our children’s future. TSNA will meet these changes
responsibly. My
theme this year is: Proud of our Past
while Embracing our
Future. I encourage you to learn from
your past, focus on the present but be willing to welcome the certainty
of many
changes. Thanks for
allowing me to serve as your 2011-2012 TSNA President.
I look forward to sharing, visiting and
getting to know you all! See ya, Alison
