It is a first come first serve deal. The meals are required to be eaten in the designated library space during the meal times. Sorry folks, there are no to-go’s. With the soaring cost of food lately I believe this to be a godsend to a lot of families. If your kids are anything like mine, bottomless pits, getting out of the house and hanging out at the library with the kids for an hour or two to get a free meal is awesome! I just want to say thank you to the libraries participating in this as well as St. Mary’s Food Bank for supplying the food!
