MEALS ON WHEELS for the Crow River Senior Center Area

 

The Crow River Senior Center is the Meals on Wheels Site for Albertville, Hanover & St. Michael. If you know someone that needs this service, please share this information with them.

 

Cost is $4.00 per meal.  Now, where can you get a great meal from the River Inn for that? 

 

Meals are delivered by volunteers Tuesday through Friday and are prepared by the River Inn of Hanover. Currently, they are delivering 15+ meals a day.

 

Consider adding your name to the volunteer driver list.  They can always use more delivery drivers and bag return.

 

Call and speak to Vonnie, please, at 763-497-8936 or email for information at vwaters@crowriverseniorcenter.com

 

Thanks.

 

Best, Ron

Hi Ron - Meals on Wheels is a great national program and I'm not at all surprised to see that it is available in your area - it's well worth supporting.

The price is good and MOST of the meals I have seen are also ok.  For shut ins it is a great thing.

Thanks, Belinda. I volunteered to deliver once.  And, it was a great experience.  I might try it again now that I have a "little" more time.

Without going into specifics, this program probably saved one of my relatives from starvation.  And, she really needed to get this food because she was afraid to cook because of mental issues.  We all tried to help but this was a real lifesaver for her.   Nice post, Ron.

Meals on Wheels is so important. A family member of my always enjoyed seeing the volunteers bringing her meal of the day.  My Mom was a volunteer for many years and loved the time she served taking meals to shut ins.

Good evening Ron Marshall , Meals on Wheels is a great service.  Your right about getting people to volunteer.  They're asking for help here too.

Meals on Wheels is an awesome program. My parents received very nutritious meals from them for a while when my dad was ill and my mom was unable to get around. I can't say enough good things about the volunteers who checked in on my parents each day.

That is a great price for a hot meal and may be the only hot meal some folks get in one day. Good job getting the word out.

Thanks, Sheila Anderson.  I don't believe that I have ever written about this service of the Crow River Senior Center before.  And, it was about time.

Ron, Meals on Wheels is a tremendous program all across this country. So many of these shut in seniors do not have funds to pay for adequate food and $4 per meal is an excellent deal. many of these seniors have pets and these folks many times give the pet the food they can afford.

Robert (Bob) Gilbert .  This is a pretty cool deal, and if I were not able to get Chief Cook to make a meal on a daily basis, I would definitely be signing up. The meals are really great....they come from the River Inn which is one of the best restaurants around these parts.

Ron - this program which is all over the country is really needed for seniors who are aging in place.  Volunteers are so appreciated.

@Debbie, these meals are SOOOOO good.  And, as I said before, if I didn't have Chief Cook making great meals, I would double up on these through the week.  They are so much better than frozen stuff.
