Eva Horning Park in Superior has great family attractions with the playground, skate park, picnic tables with plenty of green space to burn off energy for kids. And during the summer it naturally becomes busier, especially with two programs that make the manicured property even more enjoyable.
“Superior has been doing the summer Lunch in the Park for probably close to 15 years now,” said Dawn Bauer, Superior Elementary School Administrative Assistant. “It's coordinated through the HRC (Human Resource Council) and SSD3 (Superior School District 3) that provides their staff to make and deliver the meals. All payroll and supplies are paid through the HRC,” she explained.
No matter where they live, children up to 18 years old are welcome to have lunch Monday through Thursday between 11:30 a.m. and 1.p.m. This is provided free of charge and the kids do not have to be attending summer school programs.
