JFDS students had some extra-special lunch guests serving up smiles and food!

On Friday, members of the UMaine Nursing Department traded in their usual scrubs for aprons to help serve lunch. Today, members of the Bangor Police Department stepped up to the serving line, and lunch was officially a crowd-pleaser!
