WESTLAKE, OH — Westlake seniors got a treat on Tuesday.

Members of the Westlake Senior and Community Services Center spent part of the day distributing hot meals to senior residents. The initiative was part of an area-wide program run by the Western Reserve Area Agency on Aging.

Gordon Food Services donated 80 meals, composed of Sloppy Joes, vegetables and rolls, for the seniors. Staff distributed the meals while wearing face masks to protect themselves and residents from the spread of COVID-19.
