From the Franklin Community Health Council:
We have some GREAT news to share. A few months back a number of Bellingham Memorial Middle School Students, in conjunction with our YMCA and Whole Foods Market Bellingham, entered the Let's Move! and USDA Recipe for Healthy Kids Challenge. The winners of the challenge receive $3000 and have an opportunity to visit the White House and prepare their recipes along side White House chefs! Amazingly, out of the 15 recipes chosen as finalists, BMMS was the only school with TWO recipes chosen as finalists.
