Treynor CSD's Food Service Director, Mandy Vincent, was recently invited to attend the USDA's federal-led summit in support of healthy school meals in Las Vegas. Per USDA's website article: “School nutrition professionals and partners are the experts on feeding children nutritious and delicious meals, and we’re thrilled to provide them with a learning laboratory to share proven strategies and take them back to their communities,” said Deputy Under Secretary for Food, Nutrition, and Consumer Services Cindy Long. “This summit is one of the many ways the Department is delivering on its commitment to improve the quality of the meals served to children every school day and set kids up to thrive early in life and beyond.” Long added that K–12 schools serve nutritious breakfasts and lunches to about 30 million children every school day."
Mandy felt that the trip was very worthwhile and will add to her 20+ years of knowledge in school nutrition.

The JOI (Junior Optimist International) Club of Treynor has been busy already this school year, living out their motto to serve others. In September, the students made tie blankets after their meeting, sending 29 blankets to Children's Hospital. The staff at Children's Hospital told the group on Wednesday that the tie blankets "are super popular among the young patients and go fast". Later this month, you'll find the group manning a trunk or two and helping with the activities at the Community Trunk or Treat.
JOI Club also has a sub-organization, KKAD25, that promotes safety events. The Treynor KKAD25 group partners with SAFE Iowa that provides funding and events for schools.
The Treynor Junior Optimist Club meets on the first Wednesday of each month to conduct official business. The planned projects for the remainder of this year will include cookies and thank-you bags for veterans, Community Christmas event help, New Visions Toy Drive, "Souper Bowl" food drive, Valentine's for Open Door Mission and our senior citizens, Teacher & Nurse Appreciation, helping with the Fifth grade tree mulching, and more.
This year's club is led by President Monica Osborn, Vice President Gretchen Swalwell, Secretary Andi White and Treasurer Molly Coffman. The KKAD25 Group is led by President Andyn White and Adult JOI Club Sponsor Shelly Bailey serves as Secretary/Treasurer. Read more about the KKAD25/SAFE Group here.
