Summer Meals Week
Governor Kate Brown has proclaimed July 15-19, 2019 to be
"Summer Meals Week" in Oregon. What a great way to celebrate all the great things that Summer Food Service Sponsors do to provide nutritious meals to kids during the summer months; helping to turn that "Summer Gap" in learning, into a "Summer Boost". Check out this
fun video that announces the proclamation.
