mayor’s knowledge of how the
mayoral program works and
provides them ith skills
necessary to perform their
duties. “Ounce a month addi-

on various subjects. It is impos-

being a mayor in one week. Our
mayors are very enthusiastic
and believe in the program. I
think they are going to do a
great job.”
Mayoral duties encompass a
wide range of responsibilities.

ies while the low-fat type has
about 150 calories and the
whole milk product can have
180 to 210 calories.

Yogurt can be

adds flavor and creaminess but
