Dear #CampANV Parents: We have seen an upsetting trend in some of our campers diets. What we have noticed is some of our young-stars coming into camp with very unhealthy foods such as corn dogs, Cheetos and Gatorade at 8 am. You may not be aware of #CampANVs Healthy Food and Beverage Policy, but we have re-posted it below. Also below is a short article by a local nutritionist discussing the effect of food on your childs health and behavior. Please know that we at #CampANV love your children. Thats why we focus so heavily on healthy breakfast, lunch and snacks. Thank you for understanding. #TeamANV #EastOaklandRising!
