After School Snack Program

In partnership with CHA, we are again presenting After-School Snacks for all kids under 18 this school year!  Due to some logistics delays, Thornville and Somerset's programs will begin on October 1st, the other branches will begin Tuesday, September 3rd!

This program has no eligibility or registration needed, though snacks must be eaten on-site.

Bookmobile customers will still be able to pick up Grab-n-Go bags while supplies last!
