The Student Wellness Center hosts a biweekly healthy food demonstration. Today, we learned how to customize and create a healthy Banana Berry Smoothie. The crowd was very excited, and we all had a great time with Kamieca and Chef Byron. Thank you for having us. We are looking forward to the next event. You can join us on April 1 at Oak Hall, where zucchini stir fry will be on the menu.

The Student Wellness Center hosts a biweekly healthy food demonstration. On March 18, we attended the food demo for the first time and were intrigued by the information we received. Community members also showed up in support and enjoyed the healthy treat. Although there were some concerns about the time change, the amount of effort that goes into creating an event like this is greatly appreciated. Thank you to the cooks and the Wellness Center for making it possible.
The Student Wellness Center continues to create meaningful opportunities for students and community members to come together, learn, and support healthy living. Through engaging demonstrations and welcoming spaces, these events leave a lasting impact on attendees. KXWR Warrior Radio interns are proud to help share these stories and encourage others to participate in future wellness activities.
