When it comes to childcare during the summer, many families struggle to find the right solution while they are at work all day. Not only is childcare tough (and important) to find--but it's expensive. Toss in the need for meals, and there's even more of a financial burden.

Many families, during the school year, do not need to worry about meals (as much) because of programs that local schools offer for their children to eat. During the summer, with no classes, this is always a concern.

Announced by the Caldwell School District this week--free meals will be offered to children, ages 1-18-years-old beginning this week.
