This year, you can sign up for free, hot Thanksgiving dinners delivered on Thanksgiving Day. However, you must sign up this month. Orders cannot be accepted after Oct. 30.
To place an order for dinners, fill out a request slip, which is available at several local places listed below. Orders are only available for Summers County residents.
The Community Thanksgiving Meal project is a 100 percent volunteer effort and is paid for solely by donations from businesses, individuals and local churches. Because of restrictions during Covid, they were not available for the past two years. Their goal this year is to provide as many dinners as possible. Besides your own family, you are welcome to sign up and take dinners to your neighbors or others you know who might not have a hot dinner otherwise.
You can find sign-up slips at Summers County Senior Center, the high rise, Save-A-Lot, REACHH and the library. They are also available at the Hinton, Forest Hill and Pipestem post offices, Sandstone store, Pipestem campground and the basement door of the First Presbyterian Church.
Of course, more local volunteers will be needed to help make this effort possible. We will need people to deliver meals on Thanksgiving Day and people to donate desserts. Donations of money are always appreciated. To volunteer tp help with the Thanksgiving dinners, you can call Nancy M. at 304-860-9446 or nancyofmadamscreek@gmail.com or Nancy H at 304-309-4130.
Remember, no orders can be accepted during November, you must sign up now. Happy Thanksgiving!
