Team Mission and Outreach
The
team's mission is to promote Wisconsin milk products. Each team
member will visit a Wisconsin grade school to talk with kids about
good nutrition and eating for daily life and competition.
The team will make visits to Wisconsin middle schools in 2006.
"Young people very active in different sports may not always
get good information on how to eat properly. The neat thing about
the women's cycling team is they are literally mobile and can
go all over the state as role models. We are aiming to give the
young people we visit in schools a chance to visit with real life
athletes who can share how they eat to stay healthy and compete,"
said Laura Wilford of the Wisconsin Dairy Council.
