Spa Water

A couple of years ago my husband (Chris) and I traveled to North Carolina for a much needed weekend of rest and relaxation.  We stayed at a popular spa resort and my favorite thing from the entire weekend was the FABULOUS SPA WATER they served there.  It tasted so fresh and so clean! 

When I received my position as the Food and Nutrition Manager at Daves Creek, I knew I wanted to treat our teachers and staff to the same wonderful water.  Here are some of the recipes we use:

Water can be flavored with any combinations of fruit and herbs.  We have also used ruby red grapefruit and mint which was delicious.  Use any of the recipes above or google "Flavored Waters".  Enjoy the fresh treat!

National School Lunch Week

National School Lunch Week (October 15-19, 2012) is about celebrating the positive changes that have been made in school lunch programs.  Schools nationwide have been cooking up all sorts of exciting programs and plans, and by participating in NSLW, we can showcase our accomplishments and educate our community about the importance of healthy school lunches.

Daves Creek Elementary School invited our Kindergarten Parents to join us for "Take Your Parents to Lunch Day" as part of our NSLW celebration. 


Parents and children alike were so excited to be a part of our celebration!


We had over 120 parents join us!




If you are the parent of a Daves Creek Student - please join us for lunch one day!
