The Office of Coordinated School Health (CSH) is hosting a Physical Activity, Nutrition, Tobacco (PANT) Workshop on November 19-20, 2007, at the Arkansas 4-H Center, #1 Four-H Way, Little Rock, Arkansas. The PANT Workshop is for school districts that have not been previously funded for Coordinated School Health and are interested in becoming a CSH site. The workshop is designed as a “team building” workshop and will provide attendees information and resources pertaining to physical activity, nutrition, and tobacco prevention for schools and an opportunity to apply for a GRANT to implement activities in these areas. The first twenty-five schools that register will be accepted and will need to identify a team of three people to attend. School teams should choose at least one classroom teacher and one member from the school’s wellness committee to attend.

School teams may receive up to two (2) FREE lodging rooms at the 4-H Center for one night on November 19, 2007; however, all participants will be responsible for making reservations by calling the 4-H Center at 1-888-821-2544. More information about the workshop can be found at the CSH Website, www.arkansascsh.org.

A registration form is attached below. ALL REGISTRATION FORMS MUST BE RECEIVED BY THE OFFICE OF COORDINATED SCHOOL HEALTH BY OCTOBER 30, 2007. Registration forms may be faxed to 501-683-3611 or mailed to: Debby Woods, 2020 West 3rd Street, Suite 320, Little Rock, AR 72205.
