Dole's Get Up and Grow Tour Is Coming to San Antonio June 13-18 #sponsored #getupandgrow

I'm excited to share that Dole's Get Up and Grow Tour is coming to the San Antonio area starting this weekend! This nationwide 11,700-mile, 115-day journey was created by the Dole Food Company and Blue Diamond Almond Breeze to give Americans information and recipes to make Summer 2015 their healthiest and happiest EVER! They're challenging San Antonio-area residents to eat better this Summer to receive some exciting health and wellness rewards. Between now and September, the Get Up and Go Tour will stop at 480 supermarkets and special events across the U.S. The San Antonio event will take place from June 13-18 and will visit a number of area H-E-B locations -- so there's sure to be an event near you!

I’m so excited to be attending one of these fun events during the San Antonio leg of the Get Up and Grow Tour!! Be on the lookout for lots of live social media shares during my visit via Instagram (follow: WEEKENDGOURMET) and Twitter (follow: @TheWeekendGourm). I’ll also be sharing a full follow-up story later this month featuring lots of pictures from the live event -- as well as my personal spin on the Southwestern Gazpacho official tour recipe! If you visit one of these fun -- and delicious -- live Get Up and Grow Tour events, make sure to tag me on your social media so I can re-share...and drool over your amazing pictures!!
