November 2010

The November meeting focused on completing the shopping, preparation and final delivery for our annual Thanksgiving basket giveaway.

The shopping was completed during the first snow storm of the year. A big thank you to Jay Halle, our Campbell/Nelson Chaplain, for helping with the final shopping trip. Thanks Jay, we couldn't have handled all of those hams without you!

Our Thanksgiving menu this year: spiral cut ham, pumpkin pie, canned corn and green beans, fruit cocktail, stuffing, potatoes, butter, rolls, sparkling cider, whipped cream topping, peanut butter and turkey gravy.

A big thank you to Clint at the Lynnwood Albertson's for providing 'at cost' food items for our food baskets.

The team met the Monday evening before Thanksgiving and began the building of the food baskets. Everything went smoothly, and before long we were on our way to deliver the baskets to the apartment complex next door to Campbell/Nelson.

The families we delivered to were appreciative of the food baskets and we were all thankful that we were able to help these families during this holiday season.
