DAF Snack Shack
Are you getting tired of making lunches? Have we got a deal for you. The DAF Snack shack offers hot dog, corn dogs, taquitos and submarine sandwich meal deals (main course plus a juice and a bag of chips) for $5.00 each day. Lunch orders are taken at first break and prepared before lunch time. We also offer bottled drinks, assorted chips, corn nuts and chocolate bars each day. Prices vary between one dollar and two dollars. The prices are set to be as low as possible and the money we make from our snack shack goes into buying the free DAF shirts we offer kids at the beginning of each school year.
DAF Swag

A huge shout out goes to the amazing volunteers we have that help run this program so our students can have some hot lunches.
