Free summer meals for kids will resume

From staff reports

Schools, parks, community centers, libraries and other locations are once again opening their summer meals programs to children age 18 or younger.

Many of the meals sites are affiliated with summer youth programs or summer schools.

There are more than 50 sites in Spokane County that offer the programs and participate under U.S. Department of Agriculture funding and guidelines.

The YMCA this year has added Thornton-Murphy Park to its summer meals program where it operates a YMCA Summer Youth Camp.

“There is a need in that area,” said Kassa Brock at the YMCA.

She said there are other meals programs at nearby Ferris High School and Adams Elementary School, but the Thornton Murphy site is closer to many of the children who live in the Lincoln Heights area.

She said the USDA has a goal of getting summer meals into neighborhoods where lower-income families live. The government also wants kids to be able to walk to the site.

The Thornton Murphy site will open on Monday and continue through Aug. 30.

It will serve lunch from 12:15 to 12:45 p.m. and a snack at 3:30 to 4 p.m. on Mondays through Fridays.

Summer meal programs

All meals served Monday through Friday unless otherwise noted.
