Safe Food Handlers Training for teens, April 26

SEELEY LAKE - The Missoula County-City Health Department is offering a free four hour Safe Food Handlers’ training for teens in the Seeley-Swan area Friday, April 26th, from 10 a.m. – 3 p.m., at Seeley-Swan High School.

This Teen Food Safety Training offers Seeley-Swan teens the opportunity to learn about how to work with food safely, in a commercial setting, demonstrate that knowledge, receive a certificate as a Safe Food Handler from MCCHD. They will also have the opportunity to talk with local Seeley Lake food service operators about what it means to get, have and keep a job in the food service industry. The certificate builds a teen’s resume when applying to work at food establishments.

All Seeley-Swan teens are highly encouraged to attend, whether you currently work in food service, or think you never will. The information and certification will help teens to get, have and keep a job, and to handle food safely in any setting.

The class would start promptly at 10 a.m. There would be a lunch break from 12-1 p.m. and end by 3 p.m.

For more information, and to sign-up for the training, please contact Michael Dorshorst at MCCHD at 258-4993 or mdorshorst@missoulacounty.us. Any Seeley-Swan food service operators are encouraged to contact Dorshorst about getting training for current staff and how to be a part of the open forum discussion.
