Ronan center offering meals, services

Boy it’s cold out there. When you go out, remember to dress warmly and to wear your hat and gloves. Despite the weather, we had a good turn out for our Thursday night dinner. We held our raffle drawing and will be contacting the winners this week. Thanks to all who helped with this fund raiser. The money will be split between the Senior Center and the Nutrition Program.

Are you house-bound or need help with your meals? Call us and ask about the Meals on Wheels program. We deliver meals five days a week in Ronan and three days a week to Pablo. The cost is only $4 per meal.

Our meals at the center are serve at noon on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and are $4 per meal if you are 60 or older. We also serve one evening meal a month, on the second Thursday of the month. This meal cost $5 per person.
