(Michigan City, IN) - The Salvation Army of Michigan City is hosting its annual Thanksgiving Community Meal on Thursday from 11:30am to 1:00pm. Majors Dale and Becky Simmons remind the public the meal is free and open to anyone in the community.
“To us, Thanksgiving is about people being together. We don’t want anyone to spend this holiday alone, so if you are looking for someone to celebrate with come have lunch with us,” Mrs. Simmons said.
The meal will include turkey, ham, side dishes and desserts. Turkeys and hams for the meal were donated by the Rotary Club of Michigan City and cooked by Blue Chip Casino. Local physicians contribute financially to the meal every year.
“We just love how giving this community is, and how generously people give of their time, treasure and talent to help the less fortunate in their community. To us, that is what Thanksgiving is all about, being thankful for what you have, and making sure others don’t go without,” Mrs. Simmons said.
