Monterey County Libraries Resume Meal, Activity Kit Distribution on September 22

Beginning on Tuesday, September 22 Monterey County Free Libraries is resuming meal and activity kit distribution at its south county branches. Thanks to a partnership with South Monterey County Joint Union High School District and funds from the California State Library, six library branches in this part of the county will once again be a meal pickup point for students. This past summer, all library branches were a ‘grab and go’ lunch site where families could come pick up a prepared meal pack on one designated day each week. In addition, the California State Library is once again sponsoring activity bags for each child to take home a fun and educational activity, so families that pick up a meal pack will also get a kit for each student. The branches included in this south county program are Greenfield, Gonzales, Soledad, King City, San Ardo and San Lucas. Here is the schedule for meal pick up at each of the branches. · Gonzales Library – Thursdays 10:00 – 11:30 · Greenfield Library – Tuesdays 11:00 – 1:00 · King City Library – Tuesdays 11:00 – 1:00 · San Ardo Library – Thursdays 11:00 – 1:00 · San Lucas Library– Fridays 11:00 – 1:00 · Soledad Library – Tuesdays 11:00 – 1:00 Questions? Call the Monterey County Free Libraries at 831-883-7555 or the library branch in your area for more information. Find your branch at @emcfl.org.
