“ F LU SHOTS”<br />

Walgreens pharmacists will be giving flu shots and pneumonia vaccinations on Tuesday, September<br />

18th at Range Line <strong>School</strong>. The single best way <strong>to</strong> protect against getting the flu is <strong>to</strong> get your flu<br />

Principles of a Healthy Diet – Bernard Rosen – 12:30pm – 1:30pm<br />

protein. How do we know what is good for us? The truth is that we need carbohydrates, fats and proteins for our<br />

bodies <strong>to</strong> operate. However, all carbohydrates, fats and proteins are not created equal. Learn why we need these<br />

in our diet and how <strong>to</strong> make healthy choices. For each of these nutrients you’ll learn what they are, what they do in<br />

the body, why we need them and dietary sources.<br />
