A big thank you and shout out to Bass Meats for providing the delicious tasting hot dogs, burgers and pulled pork to the Community Corrections Center – Lincoln (CCC-L). The day of this luncheon, the line started early, nearly causing the food truck to run out. That tells you something smelled good!

The food truck is part of an incentive program for the incarcerated population at CCC-L. It's a reward for those who follow the rules of the institution and stay out of trouble.

The program has been such a success, team members feel certain this food truck will be back in the future!Read more
