Southeast Regional Activity
March 2009 A delicious field trip! What: Herr's Factory Tour A free, fun-filled experience with educational tid-bits, technological wizardry, and tasty little morsels to savor for years to come. There's no fake machinery or actors - it's the REAL factory, the REAL workers, and the REAL process Herr's® has perfected to make their products taste REALLY great. The tour is a first hand learning experience that includes visual methods that are sure to impress children and adults alike. students will never forget the little-known facts, like how a pretzel gets its brown color, or what makes a great chipping potato, and how tortilla chips get their seasoning. Before each tour students will get the inside scoop on the history of Herr's®. They'll also meet the group of zany characters who will be on-screen "tour guides" for the rest of the visit. It's just Herrs way of giving each guest a warm Herr's® welcome. Come for the tour and stay for lunch. Check out the fun and useful souvenirs and quality merchandise available in our gift shop area.
