At West-Mont Christian Academy, there is a strong emphasis on healthy lifestyle choices. 

In connection with the schools Wellness Team, a Healthy Eating Workshop was offered to the community on the evening of Feb. 6. 

The healthy eating workshop was well-attended.

The well-attended free event was led by two West-Mont parents who are trained chefs, and currently, work at Wegmans in the seafood department. 

The evening was fully sponsored by Wegmans, and the guest chefs, Yvonne Westlake, and Eric Myers discussed healthy eating options, the myths and realities of organic eating, how to shop intentionally, and ways to sneak more fruits and veggies into your families!

The cooking duo demonstrated three recipes that were then sampled by everyone. 

The school also recently hosted a free Essential Oil Workshop that was a big hit; families are asking for more of the same! 

West-Mont plans to schedule future events to the public that are similar. Keep an eye on www.west-mont.org/health-wellness for future wellness efforts.
