Here’s the skinny on First Lady Michelle Obama’s visit to Jackson next week. She’s coming as part of her Let’s Move campaign to fight obesity. She’ll be appearing with Gov. Haley Barbour.
From the White House:
The First Lady will travel to Jackson and be joined by Governor Haley Barbour and Mississippi First Lady Marsha Barbour at a local school to discuss ways to promote healthy schools as part of the recently launched Let’s Move! Campaign. One prong of the initiative focuses on promoting healthy eating, nutrition education, and physical activity in schools – all elements of the USDA’s Healthier US School Challenge program. The First Lady will visit an elementary school and hear from officials and experts about state and local efforts to combat childhood obesity. Media coverage details will be announced next week.
