Meetings and Events
Dallas Dietetic Association has monthly meetings running from August through May. They also sponsor two big events every year.
One event is the Fun Run/Walk. It raises funds and awareness for the prevention of childhood obesity. It is held at the Dallas Farmer's Market and is a fun-fillled event for families and schools in the area. The community has been very gracious supporting the event and cause since its start four years ago. This event is typically a Saturday morning in April.
The second big event is a Spring Seminar featuring cutting edge speakers on topics applicable for nutrition professionals. The event is a four hour event on a Saturday where Registered Dietitians and other health professionals can earn 4 or more CPEUs from participating in the workshop. This event is typically held in February.
