There will be some changes to the Grab & Go meals over the next couple of weeks.  During that time, we will transition some items served over to heat-and-eat products such as breakfast sandwiches, cheese omelets, chicken nuggets, hamburgers, chicken sandwiches and popcorn chicken.  All of these items can be heated in the microwave and instructions are on a small label that has been placed in the bag.  We will continue to have Uncrustables peanut butter and jelly sandwiches as a daily option in addition to the heat and heat lunch items.

The Harrisburg School District is now delivering Grab & Go breakfast and lunch meals to the Misty Glen neighborhood.  The pick-up time will be from 11:30 AM to 12:00 PM in front of the Community room.  Just look for the big yellow school bus! These meals are available to any child between the ages of 0-18 and the child does not need to be present to pick up meal.  Meals that are taken are to be consumed by the children in the household.  Do not ask for meals that are intended to be eaten by adults.
