WE Feed This Summer!


The Colonial Nutrition Services department will be continuing our successful delivery meal service this summer through August 12, 2021.

Delivery schedules will have some slight changes to the routing, but we will still continue delivery to half our families on Mondays and Wednesdays (red routes), and the other half on Tuesday and Thursdays (blue routes).   There will be no drive-throughs or service on Fridays.  
The summer menu will offer some new nutritious and delicious kid favorites, including some cool surprises! 

 There is no charge for meals for any child 18 years of age and younger.
