NORWAY — With school out, it’s time to think about how children who receive free or reduced-priced lunch in school will eat healthy over the summer.
The Progress Center will make healthy lunches, coordinate activities and oversee volunteers over the next nine weeks.
Lunches will be served June 24 to Aug. 23, Monday through Friday, in five locations in the Oxford Hills region: Moore Park, South Paris, 11:30 a.m. to noon; Regency Park, Oxford, noon to 12:30 p.m.; Alpine Park, Norway 11:30 a.m. to noon; Cottage Street Rec, Norway, noon to 12:30 p.m.; The Progress Center, Norway, 4:30 to 6 p.m. Thursdays only.
The Summer Food Service Program, a U.S. Department of Agriculture Child Nutrition Program established to ensure that low-income children, ages 18 and younger, continue to receive nutritious meals when school is not in session partners with organizations like The Progress Center that are committed to ensuring the children and teens in our community have access to healthy food at no cost..
