re:TH!NK 420 -Winnebago's Healthy Living Partnership Holds Legislative Breakfast


On Friday, April 20, 2012, re:TH!NK, Winnebago’s Healthy Living Partnership, held a Legislative Breakfast at the beautiful Miron Construction facility in Neenah.  In attendance were Wisconsin State Senator Jessica King -D, Rep. Gordon Hintz-D and Rep. Richard Spanabauer-R, Penny Bernard-Shaber, police chiefs, prevention specialists and local mayors as well as community leaders from Winnebago County. Presentations were given on a range of topics important to re:TH!NK, including alcohol recovery, safe routes to school, school/community nutrition, healthy community planning, law enforcement partnerships for alcohol control, FACT (Fighting Against Corporate Tobacco) and the knowledge of 4/20 among school children.

This was an opportunity to let our legislators and community leaders know how these issues are directly affecting our community. To read more about how re:TH!NK Winnebago creates awareness on these and other topics, please go to our website: http://www.rethinkwinnebago.org/.
