 Hess St. Elementary School children are joining Chef Jason Gibson (Jason Gibson Personal Chef Services) in The Hamilton Spectator kitchen on Wednesday April 21, 2010 for the Junior League of Hamilton-Burlington's 5th Annual Kids in the Kitchen. Grade 5 and 6 children will be rolling up their sleeves to make a nutritious meal and learn how to create these meals at home with their families. With the assistance of Hoopappeal, the children will also have an opportunity to practice the art of dance with hula-hoops to reinforce the value and importance of regular exercise and a healthy lifestyle. In addition, 'Brenda' and 'Zack', two of the Leagues Kids on the Block® puppets will be on hand to share their message of "Don't Just Sit There, Do Something!"
