Winning Teams Refuel With Chocolate Milk

Attention all high school athletes

-- time is running out to apply for the Refuel Your School contest as the
deadline for entries is June 30, 2008. The National Milk Mustache "got
milk?(R)" Campaign is announcing a last call for entries for the first-ever
Refuel Your School contest which will reward 25 high school athletic teams
that choose chocolate milk to refuel and rehydrate after that big game,
practice or workout. You don't want to miss out because winning teams will
score a Refuel Rally at their school, a $1,000 new equipment grant,
adidas(R) gear and more!

Student-athletes know it's important to refuel after a workout, and
studies suggest the unique mix of key nutrients in chocolate milk can help
refuel and rehydrate your body after exercise, making it an ideal
post-exercise choice. Chocolate milk contains a combination of
carbohydrates and protein to help replenish exhausted muscles after
exercise, and it provides fluids and "electrolytes" such as potassium to
assist with rehydration. Just three 8-ounce glasses of lowfat or fat-free
milk provides about half of the protein teenagers of all fitness levels
need each day.

by Goodby Silverstein & Partners and is licensed by the national milk
processor and dairy producer groups.
