*** LOCATION UPDATE **** To help alleviate traffic, the truck is FARTHER down the road within the park. Just because you don’t see the truck from the road doesn’t mean we’re out of meal kits!

TOMORROW July 30th is our weekly meal kit drive-thru distribution day! FREE meal kits (one kit per child aged 18 and under) containing the equivalent of 7 breakfasts, 7 lunches, and a gallon of milk. Kits are available at Bombardier Park West on a first come, first serve basis rain or shine. No registration required. These meals are not intended for children receiving free meals in summer school or summer camp. We look forward to seeing you there!

IMPORTANT MEAL KIT INFORMATION: With the construction on Route 7 already causing delays, we can't be adding to the local gridlock. Yes, this is a first-come, first-served program, but for the fourth week in a row, everyone who arrived before 12:45 received their meal kits. People lining up at 11 are waiting an hour for a box, but those arriving between 12:15 and 12:30 have been waiting 5-10 minutes. In an effort to reduce traffic congestion caused by people arriving before 11:45, we ask you to please consider arriving later, which will save you time and also gas by avoiding an hour of idling in the summer heat.

MES Families,

We ask that you fill out this short Transportation Survey for each of your middle and high school students. We request a submission for every student by Wednesday, August 5th.

Your input on this survey helps us to create our bus routes for the school year. We want these routes to be as efficient and inclusive as possible. Even if your student rarely (or never) rides the bus, please provide us with an AM and PM address. This will ensure that any student who ever needs the bus will be included on a route.

Many thanks,

MES Leaders

☀️ Summer Wellness Series: 3 Simple Ways to Exercise As a Family
1. Go for pre- or post-dinner walks
-Whether you head into town or just cruise the neighborhood, building a walk into your daily schedule ensures that it won't get put off.
2. Crank up the music and boogie down.
-Play your favorite song and dance together! Dancing is a great way to feel energized and it doesn’t feel like you are in “exercise” mode.
3. Sneak workouts into other activities.
-By making simple swaps to your daily activities, you can model to your family how simple it is to get moving. Some ideas are: take the stairs whenever possible, park further away at the grocery store and park your car before getting your mail. ☀️

💙📦 Yesterday, our incredible staff and volunteers distributed 500 meal kits to our community, providing nutritious food to families across the area. Thank you for your continued dedication and support!

☀️ Summer Wellness Series: July 4th Firework safety

Fireworks are a staple of summertime celebrations, but they can also be very dangerous. Each year, thousands of people are injured by fireworks.

• Never allow young children to play with or ignite fireworks.

• Older children should only use fireworks under close adult supervision.

• Be sure to have a bucket of water or a fire extinguisher handy in case of emergencies.

• Light fireworks one at a time, then move away quickly.

• Never try to re-light or pick up fireworks that have not fully ignited.

• Keep fireworks away from buildings and vehicles.

• Never point or throw fireworks at another person.

• Pets should be kept indoors during fireworks displays.☀️
