Council on Aging
Event Date: 
Thursday, November 14, 2024 - 11:30am to 12:30pm

Meals are available Monday through Friday, from 11:30 AM to 12:30 PM. We offer the option to dine onsite or take your meal as a “grab & go”.(Note: Monday is grab & go only.) We have a capacity of 70 meals total per day. One meal per person please.

REGISTRATION: Registration in advance is required, and you must sign up at least 24 hours in advance of your desired meal. Please note that some dates fill up well in advance, so reserving your spot as early as possible is recommended! Registration will open on the 15th of each month. (If the 15th is a weekend or holiday, registration will open the next business day.)

ATTENDANCE: For folks dining in, please arrive in time to be seated at 11:30am. We are unable to seat diners after 11:45am. For folks taking meals to go, you may arrive any time between 11:30-12:30. Grab & Go meals are not guaranteed to be available after 12:30pm unless you inform us you will be late. At 12:30pm, leftover lunches will be made available for sale.

CANCELATION: If you’re unable to attend/pick up, we request that you cancel your reservation at least 24 hours in advance to ensure food does not go to waste. Repeated “no shows” may result in temporary suspension from our lunch program. We do understand emergencies happen—if you’re unable to attend due to an emergency, this will not count against your eligibility.

PAYMENT: The suggested donation per meal is $3 for Harwich residents, $4 for non-residents. We track the lunches you attend/pick up and then produce an “invoice” at the end of the month showing a suggested donation amount. If you are unable to pay the suggested amount, you can talk to us to come up with a lower per-meal rate, or simply pay the amount you feel is appropriate.

More details about donations are available in the office. Look for the orange handout.
