If your kids depended on school lunches, you can still get them at area parks this summer. The free summer lunch program is funded in part by a U.S. Department of Agriculture grant. Superintendent of Bend La Pine Schools, Ron Wilkinson says the program really meets a need. “We're in a community where there is far more poverty than is evident. I think whenever it is possible to address this need. This community has stepped up to try and provide services and support.” Anyone 18 and younger may get the free lunches. Times and places of the free lunches are listed on the Bend La Pine School District website.
