KEEPING ’EM FED

KEEPING ’EM FED

With spring break over and the first full week of emergency school shutdowns starting Monday, districts looked for creative ways to keep students fed while enforcing social distancing. In Kingfisher, local churches banded together to help fill the gap. Bagged lunches are distributed from 11:30 a.m.-1 p.m. at the Kingfisher First United Methodist Church on Monday and Friday, Kingfisher Lifeway on Tuesday and Thursday and First Baptist Church on Wednesday. A total of 170 lunches were distributed with another 40 taken to Kingfisher Meals on Wheels for distribution to area senior citizens.

Hennessey Public Schools distributed about 230 grab-and-go meals Monday at various sites around town and Dover schools sent out boxes containing a week’s worth of breakfast and lunch items to 50-60 students. Families can contact each school office for lunch information. [KT&FP Photo]
