A free program for the whole family that encourages healthy eating and physical activity, as a way to prevent or delay the onset of diabetes, is being offered at Palo Alto County hospital beginning March 11.  Food tasting, cooking demonstrations, healthful meal planning (at home and while eating out), activity ideas, free samples and free health screenings are all a part of this new program.  To participate, there must be one child and one parent or caregiver at a minimum, but the whole family is encouraged to attend together.  The class will be held four Thursdays, 5:00-7:00pm, beginning March 11.  A sack lunch is served at each session.  For more information call Cindy Kassel at 712.852.5425
