SHIP staff at Bloomington Public Health found a way to do the highly improbable – for concessionaires to make money by selling healthy food!

Concession operators at the Bloomington and Edina aquatic centers (Edina Aquatic Center pictured at left), the Richfield pool and the Dwan Golf Course were first to test the waters.

For families and individuals who enjoy these venues, it means fun and healthy food CAN coexist. Hurray!!
