Miller School in Waldoboro is one of a number of locations in Lincoln County providing free summer meals to kids.
Several local organizations are coming together to provide youth with free, healthy meals throughout the summer through the USDA funded Summer Meals program. The program is open to all children ages 18 and under, no questions asked and no registration required. While many sites offer programming, kids do not need to be enrolled in programs in order to receive meals. Healthy Lincoln County sponsors the participating organizations, and all together they served more than 12,000 meals last summer.
