Boys & Girls Club Summer Program offers Free Lunch for kids

The Polson and Ronan units of the local Boys & Girls Club will be able to take advantage of the USDA Summer Food Service Program (SFSP). USDA and the State of Montana, Linderman School, School District # 30 and the Boys & Girls Club will all be participating.

Food sites through SFSP must allow all children 18 years and under can get a free lunch during the program period.

This will be the first time the Polson unit of the Boys & Girls Club will be participating on its own since the club will open at its new location in the basement of the St. Andrews Episcopal Church at 110 6th Ave. E. Members will be able to make the supervised walk to the Linderman School lunch site and then return after lunch. The summer program begins on June 14 and ends August 20. Hours are from noon until six p.m.

At Ronan club members will be able to attend the Ronan Middle School program from June 14 through June 30 for free lunch. After that the Boys & Girls Club will become the food site and food will be brought to the club. Any child 18 and under is eligible for the free lunch during that time and from July 1 through Aug 20 at the Ronan club site.

Summer program begins on June 14 in Ronan. Hours will be from noon until six p.m. For more information about the club and summer programs please call 676-5437 or email hope@ronan.net or log on to www.bgclynx.org. Programming is still in progress and the website will be updated accordingly.
