Bailey Carpenter, from the Antelope County Extension office, gave a program today called “Ready, Set, Think Your Drink…Healthy Beverages”. Eighteen children attended the program where they learned about the amount of sugar in various drinks. They also did activites where they identified healthy and unhealthy drinks. There was a fierce competition between the girls and the boys when guessing the amount of sugar in various drinks! The Antelope County Extension office is working in partnership with the summer reading program “On Your Mark, Get Set… Read!”
Kids who attended also received a contest sheet from the Elgin Review. They have questions to answer, and the answers can be found in this week’s Elgin Review. Small prizes will be given to those who complete the sheet and turn it in by the following Thursday. Every entry will be put into a drawing for an end-of-program prize for one lucky winner!
