CSNA Chapter 37

1. Vicki Becker- President 2. Liz Cole- Vice President 3. Belinda Ross- Secretary 4. Georgia Preasmyer- Treasurer 5. Karen Rasch-Herrera- Historian 6. Christina Reynolds- Regional Coordinator

Chapter 37 is increasing how many times per year chapter meetings will be held. In the previous years we met 3 times in the year. This year we have 5 meetings planned. We intend to increase our community outreach by making blankets for the babies in the hospital and making care packages for the homeless. Chapter 37 is also promoting professional development by offering courses through ICN (Institute of Child Nutrition) at two meetings this year. We are following the Plan of Action set by the EFC and have created our own strategies to complete at least one goal per Golden Poppy. Chapter 37 is promoting growth within our chapter by offering more community outreach, offering more meetings, and offering professional development opportunities. Chapter 37 has several fundraising ideas including See’s Candy and Chili’s restaurant. Chapter 37 has agreed to follow the bylaws set by the CSNA.

CSNA Chapter 46

1. Karen –President 2. Laurie Storey- Secretary 3. SUSAN Weiss- Treasurer 4. Jo Kremer- Membership Chair

Chapter 46 will start the year off with the first CSNA meeting on September 28th. The topic for this meeting will be “Making Myplate come to life in your cafeteria” and the guest speaker will be Sue Peak. Some of the goals chapter 46 is working on this year are: to become better known in the community by setting up a booth at the local farmers market, and to become a stronger chapter by working with chapter 37 to build a relationship with our colleagues from around the area. Dates for future meetings are to be determined.

Greetings from Region #7

Our Riverside Chapter#14 is working hard to keep attendance and participation up. Our chapter President Victoria Mares is learning her new position and working on improving her Chapter.

Chapter #44 San Bernardino getting busy, with our new president Rose Stark and vice president Jason Hill, we are still expanding our meeting locations in our area, hoping to increase our membership and participation.

Chapter #11 “Desert Stars” is hanging in there with their President, Monica Orta and her fantastic group creating new ideas to increase participation.

Chapter #54 “Cactus Cooks” have been busy getting things back in order for their members, getting comfortable with the positions and meetings. New chapter President, Judy Whitney is taking over and continues to guide the way for her members to increase participation.

I am excited to see members from our chapters at our upcoming conference in Anaheim. Its always so much fun to see how enthusiastic our members get while they are enjoying what is presented to them with ideas and classes. I am always encouraging members to apply for scholarships for conference and LAC in Sacramento so they can learn so much more ideas in our industry and how our association related to in regards to legislation.

Report: President Nor Cal Chapter 2 On June 30, 2016, the outgoing 2015-2016 Executive Committee and the incoming 2016-2017 Executive Committee held their transition meeting. It was a very productive meeting, we are fortunate to have a committed and engaged group of professionals working on our behalf. We discussed our Plan of Action for the upcoming year which includes matching Professional Standards to our regular membership meetings for this year. We will address one key area per meeting, please plan on attending all four meetings. Please note new Fees and Subscription rates were adopted at this meeting. SNA’s Annual National Conference was held July 9th through 13th in San Antonio Texas. It was well attended by both School Food Service Professionals and our Industry Partners from all across the country. There were so many sessions to choose from, it was hard to decide which ones to attend. I downloaded the ANC on the Go app to my iPhone, which was great. It gave me the ability to see what was happening in real time as well as the ability to view the daily schedules and provide feedback about the sessions. At the Chapter Leadership session on Saturday, July 9th, I was able to meet with other new Chapter Presidents and collaborate with them on meeting ideas for the upcoming school year. I attended several Educational sessions. A couple of my favorites include Training Your Palate, hosted by the Culinary Institute of America, where I was able to experience some very interesting foods selected by the chefs to train the palate and Leadership Skills for Professionals, presented by Jeff Joiner, a Child Nutrition Industry Speaker. Next year we are off to Atlanta, Georgia, July 9th through 12th 2017. August 4, 2016 was the 2nd Executive Board meeting for our group. We discussed in detail the upcoming Chapter meeting agendas and aligning them with the 4 key areas of Professional Standards: September - Operations, January – Administration, March – Nutrition and May – Communications & Marketing. We also discussed the upcoming Fundraiser to be held at Campo di Bocce in Livermore on Thursday, October 13, 2016.

September 15, 2016 was the 1st regular membership meeting of the year. It was very well attended by both School District representatives and Industry partners. We announced the vacancy for President Elect as Allison Mayer moved to Texas and would no longer be in the position. Speakers from CDE were on hand to present on the topics of Procurement and the new Administrative Review. The Executive Board held its 3rd meeting after the regular membership meeting concluded. We were able to fill the vacancy of President Elect with Nicole Meschi, Director of Student Nutrition, Cupertino Union USD. We are still waiting to develop the budget. We will do this once the books are closed and transitioned to our new Treasurer. We discussed the upcoming Fundraiser at Campo di Bocce once again. Upcoming dates of interest: Thursday, October 13, 2016 – NorCal Chapter 2 Fundraiser, Campo di Bocce, Livermore November 10 through 13, 2016 – CSNA Annual State Conference, Anaheim Thursday, January 12, 2017 – NorCal Chapter 2 Membership Meeting, Fremont USD, Fremont; Bosses Day and Industry Appreciation Day, bring one guest at no charge with your paid attendance.

The Mother Lode Chapter finished the 2015/16 year with an extremely successfully LAC

year of this term.

the hours by Key Area. We also had CDE representatives Sandeep Kaur and Mike Danzik

present on general CDE updates and progress on the Competitive Foods Rule

PP&L Board Report

9-24-2016

The PP&L team has had two conference calls in the last two months. Over that time, the PP&L team and Lee Angela Reid have worked on planning the LAC in Sacramento. We are excited about the great agenda we have for the event. We have sent the flyer to PoppySeeds magazine for publication and have worked on the agenda for the LAC.

We have received up-dates from Lee Angela Reid, with Capitol Advisor Group, about current bills and activities related to school food service. We have also been updated by Barry Sackin, with B. SACKIN & ASSOCIATES. LLC. about NCR block grants. In addition, Bruce Hall and CSNA members have sent letters opposing the NCR block grant.

Date: September 24, 2016 To: CSNA Board Members From: Bruce Hall Report #1 – President Since being installed as state President, time certainly has not stood still. I know this is true every year, but boy, where has the time gone? Here are some of the highlights of the past four month. I would like to recognize Peter Woods, Industry Rep and his entire committee for providing a great Industry Summit in Palm Springs. Based on the feedback we got, it was a well-received event from start to finish. I appreciate all the efforts the committee put into planning this years’ summit from the behind the scenes planning, to the speakers and panelists to the installation. It was a great summit and a very special installation of officers. Also in May, the new Executive Finance Committee and Board Members met to review this years’ Goals and Objectives and review the 2016-17 budget. Under the direction of the Membership Chair, Regional Coordinators have been busy working to restructure the packages for the awards and scholarships. Stay tuned for some great ideas generated by our great group of dedicated Regional Coordinators. There have been monthly PP & L conference calls occurring with planning in high gear for the upcoming CSNA LAC Conference in January 2017. You will want to save the date for this informative conference. Robert Schram, PP & L Chair and Suzanne Morales, PP & L Co-Chair, along with the rest of their committee are working to create a great program for this conference. This is one of few opportunities for each of us to meet face to face with our legislators and aides regarding key issues of our ever changing industry. Make your voice heard! Since presenting at our Leadership workshop in May, work has continued behind the scenes on the development of a new logo for CSNA. I am pleased to report a logo has been selected and will be revealed at the first General Session at our state conference in Anaheim. I am so excited

with the final outcome. It’s bold, colorful, and healthy and represents the work each of do every day. Heat and humidity was the theme felt by many of us on the EFC that attended the SNA Annual National Conference in San Antonio. Your Leadership team represented the state of California during the annual House of Delegates (HOD), followed by many great educational sessions and some very inspiring General Sessions, not to mention a jam-packed exhibit floor. An informative and educational time was had by each of us deep in the heart of Texas! The other project I am pleased to report on is the works is a membership brochure. The goal is to have this finalized for distribution at state conference. The end result will be a great tool to help promote and grow our membership with our association. My hope is that this is the first of several tools that will be available for any of us to help promote the importance of our association and the great work we do each and every day to feed the students of California. I hope that this brochure will be the first of several useful tools. Since January, Suzanne Morales, Conference Chair and the rest of the conference committee, have had regularly monthly conference calls as we continue to prepare to bring the 70’s to Anaheim for the 64th annual state conference. The committee took the opportunity to participate in the face to face conference meeting where we had the opportunity to tour the entire hotel and conference facility to finalizing details for this year’s conference. The conference kicks off with a full day offering numerous Pre-Conference opportunities to help educate us within our positions. Toni Chafee, President Elect and Program Chair, has put together a great program with a number of sessions with new subjects and speakers. In addition to the numerous educational sessions, we have three General Session speakers that will each present topics that are bound to help each of us “Grow” in our jobs. Friday’s General Session Speaker has just returned from winning her second Olympic Gold Medal in Rio de Janeiro in Judo. Saturday’s General Session is no stranger to speaking to our industry around the US, Jeff Joiner. Our Sunday or closing General Session Speaker is Matt Upton. Final plans are now in place as we are less than two months away from shuffling our way into Anaheim to learn and grow at what promises to be a great conference. And don’t forget to dig out that 70’s outfit and to boogie down on the dance floor during the Presidents party. I look forward to what lies ahead during the upcoming months of my term as President and honored to represent each of you on behalf of CSNA.

Date: September 7, 2016 To: CSNA Board Members From: Toni Chaffee Report # 2 President Elect. In May, we held our CSNA Child Nutrition and Industry Summit in Palm Springs at the beautiful Riviera hotel in Palm Springs, where Bruce Hall was installed as our CSNA President. Bruce and his Industry team organized a beautiful installation dinner and a great night to remember. We had a record breaking attendance with many informative speakers to update us on the current policies and requirements within school nutrition. Students from Palm Springs High School were on a panel and shared with us their honest and memorable opinions of school food service. Over the summer months, Bruce, Kim and I attended the SNA National Conference in San Antonio, Texas. There were many beneficial and educational sessions that will help us to educate our CSNA members for the near future. This year, Legislative Action Conference will be held January 29th-31st in Sacramento. Our PP& L team is working hard to organize informative speakers and educational sessions. You can also apply for scholarships through CSNA and supervisory chapters as well. At this point in the year, I am focusing on our 2016 conference in Anaheim. The conference committee, EFC, and LT teams meet on a monthly basis to ensure that all areas will function appropriately as the “BIG” event moves closer. I have been working on the program for the 2016 conference and the selection of the education sessions. This year we had a large amount of submissions for sessions and the final draft has been completed and submitted. I have focused on the USDA’s four key areas for professional development along with the state sessions that will offer something for everyone. (1) Administration (2) Communication & Marketing (3) Nutrition/Nutrition Education (4) Operations and (5) State Updates/CDE Presentations. The selection has been made for the Pre-Con Sessions, State-Update, and Conference Tour. Our General Session Speaker on Friday will be Kayla and our General Session Speaker for Saturday will be Jeff Joiner. We have something new and exciting planned for Sunday Brunch this year. Matt Upton will be our third session speaker making it a “Sunday Fun Day”. For the last few months, I have been working on my 2017 CSNA logo and theme, which will be revealed in Anaheim at the Sunday Brunch. I am in the process of reaching out to speakers for the 2017 conference in Sacramento, which has been quite the challenge yet exciting.

Lastly but most importantly, our CSNA 2017 Child Nutrition and Industry Summit will be held in Monterey California at the fabulous Monterey Plaza Hotel & Spa. Our Co-Industry Representative, Lisa Marquez, is working tirelessly gathering her crew to make this event educational yet unforgettable. This event will be held on April 30th – May 2nd, 2017 Kind Regards, Toni Chaffee President Elect, CSNA

Date: August 28, 2016 To: CSNA Board Members From: Polly Houston Report #4 – Secretary With every new job come new challenges and this year’s theme “Here We Grow Again” will definitely hold true for me. I am dedicated to support our CSNA President, Board Members Executive Finance Committee and all CSNA members to record and preserve the growth of our association. Over 40 members have committed to voluntary positions to achieve outstanding educational conferences, creating future leaders and most importantly, earning the support from our legislators to continue to provide the best nutrition for our students. I applaud all of you for your unweaving commitment and dedication in helping each other toward our common goal. Let us grow leaps and bounds to a successful year together.

#6 Membership Director

On Friday, November 11, 2016 we will distribute the starter packs to the Chapter Presidents as they enter the general session.

This year it is my plan to hand out the awards quickly and as smooth as possible. We will be handing out 3 types of awards:

CSNA Membership Years Star Club Golden Poppy Awards (Please remember to change the name)

I have placed an article in the Poppy Seed about signing up to volunteer and to keep taking photos for their frames/binders to show case their chapter’s hard work.

The regionals and I have had our first conference call and got things in

order to send out the google doc for submitting activities and goals.

According to SNA we are steadily increasing in members we had a 10% increase from August 2015 to August 2016 we have grown by 153. So, it is our goal to grow an additional 15% this year.

We grew by 3 in the certificate program we went from 184 to 192 that is a 4% increase. And we increased by 1 in the credentialing program.

Prospectus has been emailed & faxed to all past industry advisors, Exhibitors, all who pre-registered for booths, everyone who exhibited last year and all members. Jon and I took information and handed it out to all exhibitors at the ANC in San Antonio. We also distributed information at the National Restaurant Association Show in Chicago – no cost to CSNA for us attending this show. Booth numbers have been assigned and are now being filled as applications are received or they will be reserved for 3 days when requests are received by fax or phone. Exhibitor Prospectus and Booth Availability information is available on the website. All exhibitors who exhibited in the past 3 years have been called. All exhibitors who have not yet paid in full have been called. Booths are still coming in. Early Bird registration deadline is September 30th, so we are receiving registrations in and that will pick up over the next few weeks. We have 244 registered right now (Compared to 171 same time last year). A registration flyer was emailed to the CDE List and current CSNA members earlier this week and is in the mail to everyone as well. Marriott hotel is sold out on Thursday night. We are currently looking for an overflow hotel for people who want to come in Thursday night. 2017 Conference– Sacramento – Contract has been signed with the Convention Center and hotels. The Hyatt will be the conference hotel, the Sheraton Grand will be overflow. 2018 Conference– Long Beach – Contract has been signed with the Convention Center and hotels.

General Office – A current membership report and excel file of members are emailed out to each chapter president at the beginning of each month. Chapters are free to use the excel file to do email blasts of their meeting information to their membership as they see fit. We have been working with chapters to show them how to do their own email blasts using this information, and on occasion E-Mail flyers and registration information is still sent out as a courtesy to our chapters, as requested by chapters as time and other email blast schedules permit. Labels are sent out as requested, but with e-mail, this is decreasing. Proof of Insurance is sent out to chapters as requested. Miscellaneous phone calls and requests are processed as received. Miscellaneous e-mails and questions are referred to Executive Committee or appropriate chair as required. Send out information from other groups when approved by President. Elections – Prepared letter of intent for PoppySeeds and Website. Letter of intent is due into CSNA Headquarters by midnight on January 15th. Website – We are working again on a mobile website for conference which members will be able to access for breakout session information, exhibitors, etc. We are also updating chapter pages as information is received, updating committee pages and working on other ways to streamline the process of updates and collecting information from committees. All Committee Chairs and Chapter Presidents need to review their pages and give us updates regularly to keep the website current and fresh. Additional Projects:

CSNA/CDE List – We went through the CDE list of school districts and identified which directors were members, which had expired members and which were non-members. We will be sending a letter to the non-members again as soon as we finish processing Conference Registrations (some of the directors are joining with their registration) to encourage them to join. Plus general everything else. Many little projects too numerous to mention.

Industry Advisor Report September 2016

The 43rd Annual Child Nutrition Industry Summit held in Palm Springs in May was a huge success. The summit had a record breaking attendance with over 250 attendees. The feedback was great from both industry and school district personnel. The program over the course of the 3 days was filled with a wide range of current topics including meatless Monday, procurement, student panel, state and PP & L updates, and marketing.

Mark down on your calendars for the 44th Annual Child Nutrition Industry Summit April 30- May 2 at the Monterey Plaza Hotel and Spa. Lisa Marquez, the Co-Industry Advisor and her committee are already busy planning a great conference!
