Livermore Community Thanskgiving Dinner

It’s our 25^th Anniversary!!!

The Livermore Community Thanksgiving Dinner is celebrating its 25th year of providing a free hot meal on Thanksgiving Day. Our guests include seniors, singles, shut-ins, families and veterans from the VA Hospital. This is a free community dinner and all are welcome.  We will be serving well over 1000 meals at the Bothwell Center and delivering hundreds more to those unable to come to the center.

 We need your help in publicizing the following:

1.  Invite anyone who might otherwise be spending Thanksgiving alone. If anyone needs transportation, or a hot dinner delivered if they are unable to attend, they should call 455-9782.
    

2. We need volunteers to cook turkeys at their home. We provide the turkeys and pans, and we ask them to cook and deliver them to the hall at a specified time.
    

3. We need the community to contribute the desserts (pies, cakes, etc.) to the dinner. Desserts can be brought to the hall after 7:00 PM on Wednesday Nov. 21st, but preferably on Thursday morning, Nov. 22nd.
    

4.  We need monetary donations. Checks may be made payable to ‘The Livermore Community Thanksgiving Dinner’ and dropped off at the U S Bank 2125 Second St. Livermore, CA 94550.
    

5. We need help with plants. We will meet at Alden Lane Nursery at 12:00 noon on Wednesday, Nov. 21st to load a truck with plants loaned to us by Nursery. We then take them to the hall and store them for decorating the hall later that evening.
    

6. We need anyone interested in helping out to attend the meeting on Wednesday, Nov. 21st, at 7:00 PM at the Bothwell Center at 2466 Eighth Street. At this meeting we will give a brief explanation of what this dinner is all about, describe jobs that are still available and have sign ups for them, hand out the turkeys for our volunteer cooks, and setup and decorate the hall.
    

7. We need help returning equipment and plants. On Friday, Nov. 23rd at 10:00 AM we meet at the hall to return all the things we borrowed.

 If you have any questions please call 455-9782.

Thanks for your help.
