Smith Dairy Supports MilkPEPs Refuel Grants Program

Lowfat chocolate milk is “nature’s recovery drink.” It has been scientifically shown to refuel and rebuild muscles to help athletes recover after strenuous exercise. Help spread the word – and spotlight your own chocolate milk offerings – by sharing the news about MilkPEP’s new Refuel Grants program.

The Refuel Grant program will award 100 Refuel Grants to local athletes and teams nationwide from March 30, 2011, to January 15, 2012. Athletes and athletic organizations who refuel with chocolate milk can visit www.RefuelWithChocolateMilk.com to apply.

Applicants submit a photo and 150-word-or-less essay sharing why they want to join Team Refuel and then rally friends and family to vote for their application.

Each month, the top five individuals who receive the most votes will each receive a $250 Individual Athlete Refuel Grant, and the five athletic groups with the most votes will each receive a $500 Athletic Group Refuel Grant. Plus, grant recipients score cool training gear.
