MERIDIAN, Idaho — To officially begin its free meals program, West Ada School Nutrition Services hosted a "Summer Feeding Kick Off Event" in Meridian Thursday.
The event at Tully Park featured raffles and activities, while celebrating healthy, free meals for the local community.
In late April, the West Ada School District announced it would be providing free breakfasts and lunches for children between the ages of 1 and 18. The program began Tuesday and runs through July 29.
West Ada School Nutrition Services will provide the free meals at seven different locations in the Treasure Valley. Two locations will serve both breakfast and lunch this summer.
