WHOLE GRAINS & HEALTH Class - WALK KANSAS

This year People's Grocery is delighted to be a sponsor for WALK KS 09, March 8 through May 2. To inaugurate a new emphasis on grains, Sunday March 15 from 4:00-5:00 PM in the Manhattan Public Library Auditorium, Maureen Olewnik of Manhattan's American Institute of Baking (AIB) will present "Whole Grains & Health." The class is free and open to the public.

Maureen knows grains! She earned a Ph.D in Grain Science & Industry from KSU in 2003. Since then she has served as Vice President, Audit & Technical Services of AIB, with responsibilities in cereals research, food labeling and safety. Also since 03 she has been a member of the Scientific Advisory Board of the World Food Logistics Organization. She is a founding board member of the Foundation for the Advancement of Grain Based Foods. For 25 years she has held membership in the American Association of Cereal Chemists International and is currently serving on their board of directors. In spite of tightly-scheduled, extensive international travel, Maureen has volunteered to share her whole grain expertise as it relates to the needs of People's Grocery members and the general public who are walking for health. Please pass the word and join us for an exciting presentation/discussion March 15, 4-5:00 PM at MPL.

Watch for fliers and a sign-up sheet in the Deli at People's Grocery.
