Location changed for a Thanksgiving community meal!

Do you know of someone in need of a holiday meal? We will have 100 holiday meals to give away on Thursday from 11am - 1pm. We will be set up just outside the entrance to the store (the store will be closed, but some volunteers will be there), handing out meals to those in need until those 100 meals are gone. We are very grateful to be able to do this and to all the people who made this possible!
