(KNZA)--Hiawatha ACES will hold their summer lunch program for children at a new location this year.
The Brown County Commission Monday approved allowing the non-profit organization to use the basement of the Sheriff's Office for the program.
The lunch program has been held at the Fisher Center the past two summers.
Hiawatha ACES President Ian Schuetz says they wanted a more centralized location in an effort to boost participation.
The organization works with the Second Harvest Community Food Bank in St. Joseph to offer nutritional meals, free of charge, to anyone up to age 18.
Schuetz says they typically serve 60 to 75 kids a day.
He says this year’s program will be held weekdays from June 6th through August 12th, with the exception of July 4th, from 11:30 to 1:00.
