Free summer meals return for Colorado Springs-area children
Jun. 5—Several school districts in the Colorado Springs area are once again offering children free meals this summer. The USDA-funded summer food service program provides breakfast and lunch to thousands of kids ages 18 and under on weekdays during the months of June and July.
Harrison School District 2, Fountain-Fort Carson School District 8, Colorado Springs School District 11 and School District 49 will serve meals across a collective 44 locations. Children can attend any location in the city regardless of where they live or which school they attend.
The program requires no advance registrations, nor are there eligibility limitations outside of age. Children need only show up during a location's time window to receive a meal. People may not take food home and must finish their meals on-site.
The program kicked off May 30 and will run as late as July 28 at some locations. Meals might not be offered on June 19 or July 4 depending on school district holidays.
