Free lunches available for kids at Indian Trails Public Library
Kids in need of a free lunch can pick up meals outside the Indian Trails Public Library in Wheeling weekdays this summer.
Lunches are available between 10 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. at the library, 355 Schoenbeck Road.
No lunch service will be offered on July 4, July 11, July 18 or July 25, however.
The meals are part of the Seamless Summer program, which is part of the National School Lunch Program and offered here by Wheeling Township Elementary School District 21.
Free lunches are available at more than a dozen other locations within District 21, including the Alcott Center in Buffalo Grove, Childerley Park in Wheeling, London Middle School in Wheeling and Riley Elementary School in Arlington Heights.

Other school districts and community groups participate in the national program, too.
