In addition, NorthEscamba.com has learned that a non-school meal pick up location will be added by Escambia County in Century next week. The school district will also add 33 additional locations the week of March 30. Details on the additional pickup locations will be posted on NorthEscambia.com when available.
Meals will be distributed in a curbside pick up operation. Food items will be in to go containers and will consist of ready-to-eat food items that should be consumed when received or should be quickly refrigerated for consumption at a later time.
Each child will receive breakfast and lunch in the same visit. Children do not have to be a student at that school in order to pick up meals there.
ECSD will be adding 33 school sites on Monday, March 30th. The list will be updated this time, next week.
According to the USDA’s policy, the child or children must be present to receive meals. They must be 18 and younger; and meals are designed to be carried away and consumed off campus (cafeteria/dining rooms will not be open).

Do they have options for parents who have no transportation to and fro to these locations???
Mjay — from the article:
“Each child will receive breakfast and lunch in the same visit.”
Would the distribution include both breakfast and lunch items, or would someone have to drive through twice to get both?
