While most services and companies are closed for the 4th of July holiday, we know that the children in our community still depend on us for not only a meal – but for an hour of F-U-N!
With a delicious lunch of barbeque sandwiches and all the sides what could complete a meal? Girl Scout cookies!
When Feed our Kids received a donation of 13 cases of various cookies earlier in the week, Girl Scout Troop 2773 learned that they were going to be served in GRACE’s first 4th of July Party celebrating the summer lunch program, they asked to join the party. Bringing other members of their troop, they passed out boxes of cookies to those who’ve only heard of Girl Scout Cookies but never had a whole box to themselves.
In between the meal and dessert came water balloon fights, sidewalk chalk hopscotch, and a football toss. To say kids, adults, staff and volunteers enjoyed themselves is an understatement. It was a great time had by all.
Thank you to all those from White’s Chapel Methodist Church who made our first Feed our Kids 4th of July Celebration possible – we simply couldn’t do what we do without YOU!
