Plans Already Underway

for the Summer

June 26 may seem like a long way off, but F4K is in full preparation mode! We're contacting our sites - all 15 of them from last year - to confirm dates, meals, and times and to discuss what else we can do together to make it the best summer yet. We are revisiting menus to see what new things we might add and what long-time favorites we might make even better. We wondering how we might changeup our free-book program a bit. We're thinking about more ways to publicize our program to families, like joining in on more community events and distributing fliers with all the mealtime details in Spanish and Portuguese as well as English. Stay tuned ...
