Summer meals through the Jamieson Community Center are available at three locations, explains Executive Director Nancy Mowen:
“We are serving Mondays through Fridays at Lincoln Homes at noon and that is an open site. People can bring their children. That is for ages one through 18. We have a site at Recharge Teen Center. That is for registered teens and we serve there at noon, again Mondays through Fridays. At both of those sites, we are able to offer not only a hot lunch, but a shelf stable breakfast for the next day. We are also partnering with the Buchanan Center. They are doing some art classes on Thursdays at the Pattee Plaza and our lunch is served at one o’clock there and that is again an open site.”
The Summer Meals are funded through the U.S. Department of Agriculture and administered by the Illinois State Board of Education.
