Like most things at The MLDC, lunch is very different with our program. Parents have come to expect superlative standards in everything we offer and food is no exception.

During our first few years, we opted not to go the "cafeteria" route that is standard amongst camps that serve food. Instead we chose to wait until we could offer something that has more parental involvement, more nutrition and of course...more choice!

Option #1 - The MLDC has partnered with an organization that utilizes the same kitchens that prepare food for one of New England's most well known health market chains. With this option, parents can go online as early as four weeks in advance to view the selections and actually plan out the menu for each day! The choices are organic, nutritionally balanced by an expert and very flavorful. The menu for 2008 is described below and the the options are different everyday for two weeks before rotating:
