Good news for Cody families this summer: Park County School District 6 and the State of Wyoming have joined forces to provide free summer meals for children in the community, according to the Cody Enterprise.

The program ensures that local kids have access to nutritious meals during the school break — a time when many families who rely on school lunch programs can find it harder to make ends meet. By partnering with the state, Park 6 is helping to bridge that gap and keep children healthy and well-fed throughout the summer months.

Summer meal programs like this one are a vital community resource, offering not just nutrition but also peace of mind for parents and caregivers across the Big Horn Basin. Families in Cody can take advantage of the program at participating sites, making it easier than ever to ensure kids don’t go hungry when school is out of session.

It’s a heartwarming example of local schools and state agencies working hand in hand to support the youngest members of the Cody community — and a reminder of the strong safety net that neighbors here help build for one another every year.
