Volunteer with Campus Kitchen This Summer

Campus Kitchen is looking for volunteers to help with cooking classes, delivery shifts, youth cooking/gardening classes, and site monitoring.

COOKING CLASSES
To create the meals we serve Mon-Fri, we will prepare the meals Sun-Thurs evenings, 7-9 pm in the Christensen Center kitchen.
- Each evening Augsburg students will lead a class cooking a different meal (menus will be available online soon)
- Meals will be simple, affordable, use vegetables that are in season, healthy, and if all goes right, delicious
- All the participants will enjoy the meal at the end and can take 1-2 meals home with them along with the recipe

DELIVERY SHIFTS
Thursdays 11-1 pm - Peace House homeless shelter (free lunch)
Thursdays 2-3 pm - Prepare senior meals
Thursdays 3-6 pm - Deliver senior meals door to door
Fridays (1st and 3rd) 5:30-7:30 pm - Banquet at Ebenezer apartment (free dinner)
Sundays (some) 6-9 pm - Secure Waiting homeless shelter

EDUCATION CLASSES
We will be teaching kids cooking and gardening at the Brian Coyle Community Center Mon-Thu 12-4 pm, and we are looking for consistent volunteers (can be created as an education internship) to assist with those. Those helping will enjoy a lunch and snack with the kids.

SITE MONITORING
We are setting up a system for monitoring the eight sites we serve at (we are receiving federal funds that require intense reporting). We are looking for 1-2 students who will be briefly trained as monitors, and can visit these sites to ensure correct reporting, and always enjoy a meal onsite.

Keeping Track of Auggies

Abby Willaert, PA-S3 Is Off To Washington, DC!

Third-year PA student Abby Willaert was selected in April to participate in the 10th annual Paul Ambrose Scholars Program in Washington, DC from June 23-26, 2011. This preventive healthcare and project-based leadership symposium is coordinated through the Association for Prevention Teaching and Research (APTR) and the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (ODPHP). While there, Abby will join 45 other health professions students from across the country with similar interests in prevention education and health promotion. She will have the opportunity to tour local Washington, D.C. health clinics as well as learn essential skills from public health leaders. Her own project, "Healthier Women, Healthier Minnesota: Nutrition and Healthy Lifestyles Curriculum," aims to develop a nutrition and healthy lifestyle curriculum to be utilized by clinicians at Family Tree Clinic in St. Paul during annual well-woman checkups and nutrition visits. Abby hopes to have her curriculum complete and available for providers to begin using at Family Tree by December 2011. For more information regarding this symposium, visit http://www.atpm.org/pasp/index.html
Congratulations, Abby!
