We have officially started the ball rolling for the annual Thanksgiving dinner held on Thanksgiving day and free to anyone wanting a Thanksgiving meal. The meals can be delivered and eaten at home, picked up and taken elsewhere to eat, or dine in at the Butler Senior Center.
The goal is to have the delivers out by 1030AM. If you want to pick up your food, you can pick them up at the Butler Senior Center starting at 1030. If you want to dine in, you can come in around 12 Noon, but the line will not start forming until around 1PM.
We need volunteers for delivery, for kitchen help, and for runners (a great job for teens from 12 and up). This is a wonderful way for service minded youth to get hours in! Boy Scouts, 4H, school or college led programs, can get service hours in!
Our meal will be your choice of turkey or ham, mashed potatoes and gravy or sweet potato casserole, corn or seasoned green beans (seasoned with ham ends), your choice of pumpkin pie or apple pie. All meals come with dressing, cranberry sauce, a roll and butter.
