The annual dinner will be held on Friday, the 14th of November and promises to be, as usual, a spread to give thanks for. If I heard correctly, the Asphalt Angels will be there by 3 p.m. – loading up “to go” plates to deliver to area shut-ins, and then the on-site diners will be served from 4 to 7.

Delivering the Thanksgiving meals is just one of the ways the Asphalt Angels give to this community – they have my thanks and my admiration.

This meal is served free of charge to area seniors – but of course, no one will complain if you wish to give a donation to further the Happy Ager’s activities, such as the Soup Kitchen. If you didn’t already know, the Soup Kitchen is open every Monday from 11 to 1 – Anyone can come, and the price is by donation only.

Last year over 300 Thanksgiving meals were served to area seniors and their guests – how many will attend this year?
