Report #2 President-Elect The journey continues. With the successful signing of the SAA The Leadership Team returned to business as usual.

LAC 2019 - Washington, D.C. SNA did an excellent job with subject matters and the structure of the conference. A few are as listed below:

o The Supply Chain: Challenges for Industry and Operators – This session unveiled the good, bad and ugly of the effect to K-12 pricing from the supply chain point of view. Directing Your Indirect Costs – A breakdown of exactly what we need to know about indirect costs and how to create a plan to get their district compliant. Meal Charges: How to Best Serve Your Students and Your Program – A hot topic across the Nation. A plethora of examples was given of what districts are now doing to combat this issue.

Child Nutrition and Industry Summit, Dana Point – My favorite sessions;

o The Agenda was filled with thought provoking topics, starting out with Ryan Molnar, an excellent speaker that definitely met his goal of getting the audience “Unstuck” helping us find success in every area of your life.

o Chef Cyndie Story, PhD, RD. Entertaining with prizes will always a be crowd pleaser. The interactive session covered food labels from the grocery store, to the Child Nutrition label and the Buy American Provision. The audience was given a quick lesson on determining fact from fiction when purchasing that “Low-Fat” Cheese.

Annual Nation Conference, St Louis, Mo – Sessions I would attend again if given the opportunity;

o Customizing School Meals: Raising the BAR – When the thought of raising the Bar any higher crossed my mind, I was doubtful, this session showed me I could. Flavor stations for K-5 was a nightmare to think about, but Shannon Gleave RDN, SNS, showed us it’s crazy yes, but out the box possible and it is.

o 13 Common Errors That Manager Make and How to Avoid Them – This session gave me a punch list that helps me not make these mistakes and know how to identify them as well.

o Attending HOD, General Sessions and meeting people hearing their stories of trails and accomplishments is inspirational.

2019 Conference, Ontario “Leading the Way”- The focus is ramped up as we close in on the last 30 days (get or take).

o Breakout sessions grid is complete - Sessions cover many key areas, training topics to fulfill Professional Standards requirements. Attend as many as you can and evaluate them. This will assist planning for the 2020, Pasadena conference.

o Planning the programs for the General Sessions have been exciting, always thinking of new ideas to add, but fortunately there’s a deadline and any new ideas will have to wait until next year.

2020 Child Nutrition & Industry Summit, San Diego

o Anita Papke, Co-Industry Advisor is busy making plans for a Magnificent Child Nutrition & Industry Summit in San Diego at the Marriott-Marina. She’s forming a team to help ensure the topics are thought-provoking with a little humor, motivating members to return to work revitalized ready to finish the year.

2020 Conference, Pasadena – o Logo completed, shirts selected and theme choosen. o Never too early to plan to be there it will be October 30, 2020 –

November 1, 2020, with the Presidents party on Halloween night. Planning is underway.

Sincerely

johnna jenkins

Report: Vice President

In July, I attended the SNA Annual Conference in St. Louis. It is always inspiring to attend a national conference where you get to meet people from all of the country doing the same thing you are.

Currently I have assembled an ad hoc committee to review the current CSNA by laws. The committee includes; Amber Watson from Marysville Joint USD, Stephanie Tovar from Westminster SD, Laura Bullene Jacobo from Woodlake USD, Janine Nichols and myself. As a committee, we have reviewed and discussed the current by laws to determine they continue to be reflect and guide the work of CSNA. Some updates have been suggested and will be presented to EFC at the fall board meeting.

I look forward to the upcoming CSNA annual conference in Ontario in November where we will continue to “Lead the Way” is school nutrition.

Report: Co-Industry Advisor

• Instituted monthly IAB conference calls; two held so far; 8-18 & 9-13, holding them every 3rd Friday of the month

o First call was held on 8-18 o Discussed upcoming fundraisers:

Our selling point to industry is they get to spend quality time with directors/districts when we ask for sponsorships. Therefore one way to increase participation from the directors/districts is to offer free attendance for them to attend and in lieu of bring gift cards for “money tree”.

Ask our chapter/ board for assistance in contacting the directors to attend the fundraisers

o Discussed Chapter Meetings: Ask your chapter to email meeting schedule to [email protected] so

it will be placed on your chapter page and also on the CSNA calendar to avoid scheduling conflicts

Goal for next year; connect the person of each chapter/president elect to work together for meeting schedule for 2020/2021 school year.

o Discussed CSNA Conference; November 7-10th; Presidents ball is Saturday evening; Nov 10th, asked each of the industry

chairs & co chairs to attend this event to show your support for your chapter & CSNA

• 2nd call was held on Sept. 13th

o Discussion on Planning for Child Nutrition and Industry Summit 2020 May 3rd - May 5th, 2020—Hotel Marquis, San Diego, California. They have all graciously accepted to be part of the planning committee

for this event.

• Soliciting donations for Polly's workshop & donations for Golden Ticket raffle for the upcoming CSNA conference.

Chapter 46 is working to have the first meeting of the year the first part of October. Laurie Storey is President but they are currently having trouble finding a President Elect.

Chapter 37 is also in the process of planning the next meeting, we are hoping for a meeting date in the middle of October. Chapter 37 is expected to have 4 meetings this year with one being a Holiday party. The Holiday parties include a food or toy drive.

Report #11 Conference Committee Chair

I can’t believe how fast conference is coming but I am happy to say that we have an amazing Conference Committee and they are working very hard.

Update:

On August 17th a few of us walked the Ontario Convention Center and the Doubletree Hotel. This was good because there is a change in the foyer of the convention center.

All of the Keynote Speakers and Education Sessions are finalized. Booth count is slightly below last year as of August. Resource room would like anyone to bring ideas, menus, recipes, etc. to

share. Pre-conference – The tour of Ontario will include Galasso’s Bakery and

Farmer Bob’s farm. Of course the CDE will share their knowledge and the SNS exam will be offered. This year there is also a class to help develop cafeteria management skills.

VOLUNTEERS are always needed and help the conference run smoothly! If you or someone you know is interested please go to the CSNA website and sign up. If you know anyone that wants to get their feet wet…this is a great opportunity.

I look forward to seeing you all at conference!!

CSNA 2019-20 Public Policy and Legislation Committee

October Board Report (# __) Meeting Date: 10-5-2019 Submitted By: Suzanne Morales – State PP&L Chair Kristin Hilleman- State PP&L Co-Chair Business Committee – We have a wonderful committee and we are just beginning to

work together. Committee Focus- Focus this year is on continuity and committee involvement. We are looking to set job descriptions for members for involvement. Areas of Focus:

• Website upkeep • Poppy Seed articles • New comers to LAC • Mentorship at Washington DC LAC • Monthly updates to website on happenings

State Updates Discussing Bills on the Table: AB 479 – (Nazarian) School meals: plant-based food and milk options: California Climate-Friendly Food Program. Dead for 2019. SB 265 - (Hertzberg) Pupil meals: Child Hunger Prevention and Fair Treatment Act of 2017. Requires local educational agencies to ensure that a pupil whose parent or guardian has unpaid school meal fees is not shamed, treated differently, or served a meal that differs from what a pupil paying for a school meal would receive. SB 265 was approved by the Assembly on September 9, 2019 and the Senate on September 10, 2019. The bill is now on the Governor’s desk. SB 328 (Portantino) - Pupil attendance: school start time. Requires the school day for middle schools and high schools, including those operated as charter schools, to begin no earlier than 8:00 a.m. and 8:30 a.m., respectively, by July 1, 2022, or the date on which a school district’s or charter school’s respective collective bargaining agreement that is operative on January 1, 2020, expires, whichever is later. The bill does contain some modified language for rural school districts. SB 328 was approved by the Assembly on September 13, 2019 and is now on the Governor’s desk.

Current Work at State

Currently on a “letter writing” campaign for district opposition of SB265-in the form that it is written. While CSNA supports feeding all children, the financial support is not in the bill and the bill will become an unfunded mandate, which is detrimental to student funding. To date- 48 letters have been sent to the Governor’s Desk through Capital Advisors.

Washington DC Updates

• Current Concern surrounds the SNAP benefits and current administration to change how these benefits are distributed and the concern with student benefits

• Additionally, with the change in how immigrants are granted benefits

prior to citizenship and how many are afraid to apply for benefits- The concern is how this this will affect the SNAP application – which in turn affects student eligibility

PP&L committee will be following up with the committee on three information collections for public comment to Federal Register on these three topics:

• OMB Review for National School Lunch Program • Development of Nutrition Education Messages and Products for the

General Public • Generic Clearance to Conduct Formative Research

Update for LAC Conference

PP&L will request from EFC and the Board the ability to move the LAC conference in Sacramento to best accommodate the Legislative cycle and allow PP&L and the conference attendees the best impact for advocating for the legislative bills that are on the table. This change will allow the PP&L committee to develop relationships upon arrival of new legislators to their offices in January each year, and maintain and strengthen relationships with seasoned legislators during the January time.

Report: Professional Development

I was asked to step in as Professional Development Chair at the last meeting in April.

I am still learning the duties of the role but have tried to share any valuable resources that have

come my way. We have added a few links to the CSNA Professional Development page. The CDE

Course Catalog, the CACFP Online training series, and the USDA Professional standards Training

database has been added as well.

I have had a few Chapters reach out asking about approved speakers, how the CEUs

are calculated along with the requirements on how a training topic can be approved for their

meetings. I have been learning a lot and the CSNA website has been a great help. I want to

continue to learn the duties of this position and want to continue to provide educational

resources to our members.

Thank you,

This meeting was used to plan out all Chapter 10 meetings and topics, including the annual fundraiser. Scholarships to be offered where also discussed in detail.

From: Ron Chance

Report: President #35

Chapter 36 is staying busy and trying to find ways to increase participation in our meetings. We usually have more people when we have fun activities or field trips. But we also see the need to improve and stay current with our job responsibilities. So in the future will continue to have a mix of both.

In May, we had our year-end party and installation of our new officers. We are still needing to fill our President elect position and will continue to search for a candidate.

In September, we had our welcome back meeting. It was a small group. We had a brief business meeting and then watched a webinar from SNA. We decided that since our customers favorite vegetable are potatoes that we would watch one geared towards that. We watched “Potatoes from Seed to School Cafeteria”. Using one of the recipes from the webinar, we enjoyed a nice potato snack.

In October, we plan on going and touring a local supplier of our fresh kiwi’s that we serve. It is close by and should be easy for all to attend.

Sincerely

Ron Chance
