LEWISTON — The Lewiston School Nutrition Program is participating in the Summer Food Service Program. Meals will be provided free to children up to age 18 attending school. Meals are the same for all children who are attending summer programs throughout the city.

Those who are running a summer program at a recreation center, playground, church youth group, park, daycare center or similar program for school-age children may be eligible.

For more information about qualifications, call the Lewiston School Nutrition Program at 207-795-4106. If approved, all meals must be eaten at the approved site, as children are not allowed to remove food from the location, such as schools, recreation centers, parks, playgrounds, daycare centers and churches.
