Free summer meals for all kids and teens will begin when the school year ends. Meals are free to children under the age of 18 and adults coming with a child can eat free, thanks to Community Services. (Scan the QR code to fill out the income validation form. This is voluntary and helps with the funding.)
The meals will be available weekdays May 16 through August 19, 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Tarkio Nutrition Center, 412 Main Street. Call 660-736-5725 for more information.
