- Student/Faculty Mixer was a success! Thank you to those who came and made it such a great
event!
- Health and Wellness Fair is on Wed. Jan. 18th in the Arc, 5-8PM
SNA will have a booth. If you're interested in a shift (either 1-1.5 hours) to run the booth, contact
Nicole (ngreaney@ucdavis.edu). Possible topics we'll be educating people about: sports
nutrition, healthy eating, etc.
-Lots of senior officers will be graduating in Winter or Spring. A "mentorship" will begin in the
winter quarter, so those of you interested in running for an open officer position can start training
for the position while the officers are still here to help. This will be discussed further at the first
SNA meeting in Winter Quarter and elections will be held the 2nd meeting in winter.
-Hungary Reader program is starting up in Winter Quarter. Classes will be held at an elementary
school in Woodland. Nutrition education topics include: fruits & vegetables, physical activity
and hand washing. Contact Catherine (crpohorsky@ucdavis.edu) if you're interested in being in
the Nutrition Education committee.

== January 2005 Meeting ==
We went over a lot of stuff this meeting, which took place on the 25th. First of all, and most
importantly, we elected a new secretary! Congratulations to Mayuko! We have a lot planned for
the rest of the quarter and into the next, so here's a brief rundown of what was discussed:
'''["Relay for Life"]'''
'''SNA Newsletter'''
'''Cooking demonstration at the ["Davis Farmers Market"]'''
'''["Picnic Day"]'''
Dr. Shaffrath's guest lecture
Joint activity with the International Nutrition Club
The possibility of screening "Super Size Me"
SNA Bowling/Complain-About-School Night
Some kind of fundraiser
Items in '''bold''' font are things that we are still accepting sign-ups for. So if you left early and
missed the sign-up sheets that were going around, just drop us an email at
SNAUCD@hotmail.com to let us know what you're interested in.
Tentively, for ["Picnic Day"], we have planned to calculate BMIs for people that stop by our
booth, as well as some kind of fundraiser-type thing. For our cooking demonstration at the
["Davis Farmers Market"], which will take place one Saturday a month, we were thinking
vegetarian chili. Any other ideas for either of those (or anything else) are very much welcome.
== December 2004 Meeting ==
If you missed out on our last meeting, the magazine fundrasier brought in $100 for our club.
SNA adopted a family through STEAC for the holidays. The Secretary position for the club is
open for Winter and Spring quarters, and Allison and Mayuko are two candidates so far,
although anyone is welcome to run. Our new secratary will be voted in our first Winter quarter
meeting, and each candidate must give a little spiel as to why they should be secretary. We also
discussed plans for next quarter. We have two guest speakers lined up, Dr. Applegate and Dr.
Shaffrath, we have a trip to the food museum, Copia, planned, as well as Relay for Life and
Davis Farmer's Market demonstrations.
== November 2004 Meeting ==
The second meeting has come and gone. Our guest speaker, Dr. McDonald, talked about
Nutrition and Aging, and answered random nutrition questions. A riot almost started when he
asserted that women can't build muscle at all. After that, pinata fun was had and then we all went
home.
== October 2004 Meeting ==
The first meeting of the quarter took place on October 13th, and if you missed it, well that's just
your bad luck. Some of the things discussed at the meeting were:
Heartbeat Run's Activities Health Fair

Dr. Applegate as a guest speaker
Kaiser Permanente Internship opportunity
Trip to the ["Woodland Corn Maze"]
Trip to the Copia Food Museum
