Be prepared for hurricane season

Don't lose power during the next storm. A reliable generator keeps your lights, fridge, AC, and medical equipment running when the grid goes down. Essential for Florida homeowners who want peace of mind during hurricane season. Shop hurricane-ready generators (Amazon Associate disclosure: Sebastian Daily earns from qualifying purchases.)

Indian River County families can pick up a full week’s worth of meals at two Grab-N-Go sites in Fellsmere:

• Fellsmere Community Outreach and Preschool, meals will be handed out on Tuesdays from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. The site is at 1025 W. Grant Ave., Fellsmere, FL 32948. It will operate from June 8 through Aug. 7.
• Operation Hope will offer meals on Mondays from 10 a.m. to noon. That location is at 12285 County Rd. 512, Fellsmere, FL 32948. It will run from June 8 through Aug. 3.

Children must be present to get meals. If a child is not there, parents or guardians must show proof of eligibility for each child. Acceptable proof includes a birth certificate, school report card or state-issued ID.

The program aims to help families make sure children have enough to eat when school is not in session. No registration is needed for most meal sites.
