Ready, set, grow – ‘Movember’ run to support men’s health
More vegetables and fewer fried foods are showing up in school cafeterias at Naval Support Activity (NSA) Naples, thanks to a collaborative effort to improve the nutritional content of school lunches on base. Schools aboard NSA Naples recently introduced a revised school meal program that implements the nutritional standards set by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). The new menu offers more fruits, vegetables, whole grain bread, baked dishes, yogurt and cereals, while eliminating or greatly reducing fried foods, high-fat entrees and breakfast items with high sugar content. Lt. Cmdr. Tinsika Riggs, head of nutrition management at U.S. Naval Hospital Naples, said reviewing menus and meeting USDA guidelines is a requirement for federal funding.
Sailors from the Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence (C4I) First Class Petty Officer Association will sprint while sporting mustaches in November as part of an effort to raise awareness about men’s health issues. As part of the global movement of “Movember,” the C4I First Class Petty Officer Association is putting on an afternoon 5K charity run at the Naval Support Activity (NSA) Naples Support Site Saturday, Nov. 10. Movember is a worldwide initiative intended to raise awareness about men’s health in a uniquely male way — by growing a mustache. According to the Movember Foundation website, “Movember” — which combines the words November and mustache to form its name — helps raise money for organizations like the Prostate Cancer Foundation and the LiveStrong Foundation. “This event is to create awareness of healthy living and to support men in the battle against prostate cancer,” said Intelligence Specialist 1st (SW/AW) Class Scott Wulwick, the event coordinator. “Prostate cancer claims as many men a year as breast cancer does women.” Since its founding in 2003, the Movember campaign has grown into a worldwide organization, which has raised $300 million dollars to date for Movember’s global beneficiary partners. “Right now all we have planned is the 5K charity run,” said Wulwick. “But there may also be some kind of recognition event for the best mustache and top fundraiser on base at the beginning of December.” see ‘MOVEMBER’ RUN Page 7

Riggs, who initiated all the changes, also said the process of revision took about six months to complete, with many considerations to account for.
“The previous menu had not been reviewed in over four years by a registered dietician,” said Riggs. see LUNCH PROGRAM Page 6
