COLORADO SPRINGS — Military veterans and first responders will be able to pick up a free grab-n-go sack lunch Friday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., thanks to Level Up Coffee at 4730 Barnes Road in Colorado Springs.

The lunches will include a sandwich, chips, a fruit snack or cookie, fresh fruit, and a bottle of water.

Items that will be in the grab-n-go lunch sacks.
