Monday, June 8 @6:30PM Brighter Bites

On Monday, June 8 at 6:30 PM, we will hold an online-only club meeting.  Our speaker will be Rebeca Hernandez-Gonzalez presenting on Brigher Bites. 

Brighter Bites is a nonprofit that creates communities of health through fresh food with the goal of changing behavior among children and their families to prevent obesity and achieve long-term health. Rebeca will introduce the school-based work of Brighter Bites (they service Pecan Springs among many others) and how they adapted their program in March 2020 to address the challenges brought on by the COVID-19 outbreak. Please join us to learn more about their produce distributions, partnerships, and how they plan to continue serving our schools, families, and the greater Austin community throughout the summer and into the next school year.

Our meetings are now online using WebEx.

Web Meetings (or web conferences) differ from watching videos on line (YouTube, Facebook Live, Netflix, etc.) because our club members can interact and participate in the meeting.  Thru the use of your camera and microphone on your desktop or smart device, people in the web meeting can see you (if you allow) via the camera on your desktop or smart device, and you can speak up in the meeting via the microphone on your desktop or smart device.   

Our meetings will be conducted with WebEx.  WebEx is free, and runs on desktops, laptops, tablets and smart phones.  You can also dial in on an old school phone or cell phone if you just want to listen in on the meeting (and talk.)
