  2. We Love Summer Feeding! We feel very strongly about our library’s participation in this program, and literally feel that it’s one of the most important things that we’re able to do for many of our children and families during the summer. First, how we got started…

  3. on a personal note: Lunch times: Too long vs. too short. It may be helpful to know that if someone comes in after your listed serve time, it’s against the program rules to serve them.

  4. SUPPLIES

  5. Miscellaneous Helpful Hints Have a large bowl or container available for leftover milk or juice to be poured into. This will help to eliminate spills and leaks in your trash cans / bags.

  6. More Miscellaneous Hints At our library, we only send 1 staff member to pick up lunches, however our local school provides carts on-site to get the lunch crates, boxes, hot boxes, etc. out to the transportation vehicle. If this is not the case in your district, it may be helpful to send 2 staff members to pick up a large number of lunches.

  7. More Miscellaneous Hints Have at least 2 staff members available to serve lunches. We personally use an assembly line system. The participants form a line outside our designated room and wait for us to notify them when we’re ready. When they enter the room, they are first told to wash their hands (with hand sanitizer) and to grab a napkin and a straw. One staff member hands them their choice of milk, and marks their number off on the check sheet. The second staff member hands them the remainder of their lunch, which may be a bag, or in the case of a “hot” lunch day, a lunch bag plus the hot item (sandwich, piece of pizza, etc.)

  8. Lastly… And remember, you’re doing a great service for your library kids and your community! Don’t be overwhelmed…we all do the best we can, and even though there may be occasional glitches, WHAT YOU’RE DOING MATTERS TO A CHILD!!
