Chester senior meals

The Chester Senior Center is offering hot lunches to seniors Mondays and Wednesdays during the pandemic. They are preparing two different entrees each day.

Seniors should call the center at (618) 826-5108 to reserve either a curbside meal or arrange to have one delivered to their home.

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 pick up their meal won't get out of their vehicles, but are handed the meals through the car window.
