Nutrition exhibit in Truckee helps visitors explore better food choices

'Everybody Eats' open to public Saturday 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. through April 1


February 14, 2008

Everybody Eats, an interactive exhibit with 12 eye-opening displays is on loan from the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI) in Portland through April 1 in Truckee.

The KidZone Museum has partnered with the Nutritional Coalition and Tahoe Center for Health and Sports Performance at Tahoe Forest Hospital (TFH) to bring Every Body Eats to the community.

About the exhibit
Every Body Eats features 12 interactive areas. At the eye-opening “Sizing Up Servings” area, visitors are challenged to match appropriate serving sizes to everyday objects.

“Fuel Your Body” has visitors choose from a variety of breakfast foods to fuel a “car”—an analogy for the body—and then race the cars against each other. Each car moves forward a certain distance depending on the person’s food choices.

Details
Every Body Eats
Open to the public through April 1, 2008

Open to the public
Saturdays from 10 a.m. -2 p.m.

Tahoe Center for Health and Sports Performance
10710 Donner Pass Road in Truckee.

No admission charge, although donations to provide children with transportation and to train docent staff are greatly appreciated!
