As the school year winds down for the Greene County School District, plans have been announced about the continuation of the free summer lunch program.
There will be four meal sites for anyone 18 and younger to receive a free lunch from June 14th-August 6th. Meals will be served at the Grand Junction Community Center from 11am-12:30pm, at Greene County Elementary School in Jefferson from 11:30am-12:30pm, as well as the Scranton and Rippey Community centers from 11:45am-12:15pm. Children can either eat lunches at the sites or there will also be a grab and go option as well.
The program is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and pre-registration is not necessary. No one 18 and younger will be charged during the Free Summer Lunch program, nor will any child be denied a lunch based on their race, color, national origin, sex, age or disability.
