It will involve car handling, getting in and out of car, teamwork and especially a sense of humor! Bring any car for the competition!

Happy 1st day of school! We were so lucky to have a bunch of awesome teachers and other school district employees step up and take Meals on Wheels routes when school closed last March. That being said, we currently have a great need for volunteer drivers. We have routes available Monday through Friday and deliveries are typically made between the hours of 10am and 1pm. Most routes take less than an hour of your time. We are still only delivering to coolers that are set outside of our recipient鈥檚 doors as a way to limit contact and exposure for both our volunteers and recipients. If you鈥檙e interested in taking on a Meals on Wheels route once a week, please call Debbie, our Volunteer Coordinator, at 307-265-8659.
Natrona County Meals On Wheels has been chosen by the Casper Boat Club as the beneficiary of the 2020 Poker Run at Alcova Lake on July 25th!

If you have any questions about participating or sponsorships, please call Meals on Wheels at 265-8659.
Mia stopped by this morning with her donation of $300 that she raised by selling bracelets and punch!
Due to COVID-19, we have had to revamp the way that we do some things in an effort to keep all of our volunteers, staff, and especially our recipients safe. Mike Brelsford has been a Meals on Wheels volunteer for 18 years and since the middle of March, some weeks Mike has volunteered 5 days a week carrying out cooler bags to our volunteers in the parking lot and delivering meals to recipients. He continues to #ShowUsWy we have THE BEST volunteers. Please consider a donation to Natrona County Meals on Wheels to help us ensure that no senior goes hungry. #WyoGives

Our faithful, longtime volunteer Elmer Hoke passed away on December 31st at age 95. Elmer was a Meals on Wheels volunteer for 21 years and if you've spent any time at Meals on Wheels in that time, you know Elmer. For many years and up until very recently, he drove every single day, Monday-Friday. Elmer knew so much about Casper history and always had great stories about all of his years in Casper. We will miss him so much!

We definitely won't ever find another Elmer and we will always miss him!
