For the third summer in a row, the Kids Lunch Club will be providing free lunches for any kid who needs one during every weekday in the summer. Local faith communities, businesses, the school district, and the city are all supporting the lunch club.
Starting June 11th and continuing through August 10th, fresh grab-n-go options will be served every weekday at John Cline School from 12 noon until 12:30 p.m., and at Freeport Park from 12:45 p.m. until 1:00 p.m. No registration is taken--simply swing by and grab a lunch. ALL kids under the age of 18 are welcome.
This organization is entirely sponsored by community volunteers who help to pack lunches twice a week and serve meals on a daily basis. Lunch Makers must be 16 years old to volunteer by themselves. Lunch Makers under 16 need to have a supervising adult present for packing. Only adults over 18 can sign up to distribute lunches during the week.
To sign up for making or serving lunches, to donate, or simply to learn more about this returning summer program, go to kidslunchclub.org. You can also like the Kids Lunch Club page on Facebook to get constant updates, photos, and facts for the summer. You can also sign up to volunteer or donate in person at the Winneshiek Farmer's Market on June 2nd.
