With the school year ending, free Summer Eats meals will begin soon on Thursday, June 20th, in Springfield! All kids and teens 18 and under can eat meals for free; no sign-up is required, and no questions are asked. Just visit the Summer Eats sites throughout the summer at the time listed on our website.
This summer, kids and teens eat free at meal sites throughout Springfield! Kids and teens must be present to receive a meal and are required to eat on-site. Many sites will host fun, kid-friendly activities throughout the summer!
