Bend, Ore. – 12 year old Joyce Lopez represented Oregon at a national summit in Chicago last month. The event also featured big name celebrity NFL athletes.

The national Fuel Up to Play 60 summit brought together 150 students and 95 program advisors from 45 states to talk about making healthy, sustainable changes and ideas for representing and promoting the program at the local level.

Fuel Up to Play 60 is the premier in-school nutrition and physical activity program in the U.S. Inspired and led by youth, Fuel Up to Play 60 empowers students to eat healthy, be active and make positive changes in their schools and communities.

The program – created in partnership with the Oregon Dairy Council and the NFL, in cooperation with USDA – is active in more than 73,000 schools nationwide.
