Chester Senior Center serving lunches on Mondays, Wednesdays
The Chester Senior Center is continuing to serve lunches on Mondays and Wednesdays during the coronavirus pandemic.
According to Donna Wolters, seniors should call the center at (618) 826-5108 to reserve either a curbside meal or arrange to have one delivered to their home.
The meals are potluck: There is no set menu, as the center is making nutritious meals out of whatever supplies they are able to obtain.
Wolters said the volunteers who deliver meals to seniors' homes do not come into contact with the recipient. Meals are hung on the doorknob and the delivery person will ring the doorbell to let them know the meals are there.
Seniors who choose to come pick up their meal won't get out of their vehicles, but are handed the meals through the car window.
