Each individually prepared meal will have all the traditional Thanksgiving fixings including turkey, yams, stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy, corn and green beans, salad, and pie.

Because of the Covid-19 pandemic, this is a no-contact program and reservations are required. To make a reservation, please visit this page. To read details on the program and for complete instructions, please click here. All participants must wear face masks.
