First Lady Michelle Obama to Visit Watertown

First Lady Michelle Obama and Actress Eva Longoria are coming to Watertown High School Thursday for an event to promote drinking water instead of sugary soft drinks.

Watertown is home to Wis-Pak, one of the country's largest manufacturers and distributors of Pepsi products. 

Mrs. Obama is joining with "Partnership for a Healthier America" to launch a new nationwide effort to encourage the drinking of more water.

The White House says the event is not open to the general public.
