Ada’s summer lunch program provided by Beatitudes, 210 N. Main St., topped its 1,000th lunch last week, according to Deb Curlis.

“Well actually served 1,008 lunches in the nine-week program,” said Curlis. “That’s an average of 112 meals per week.”

She added that parents and grandparents who were involved were very appreciative.  

“They all said how much the kids loved being able to choose what they wanted for the lunch each day,” said Curlis.  

Beatitudes received a grant from Hardin County Community Foundation for $1,200, specifically for children's lunch program.
