Havre's Community Thanksgiving Dinner is free to everyone through support from an anonymous donor, but what makes it run smoothly is the help of many volunteers.
This year’s Community Thanksgiving Dinner will be 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 23, at St. Jude Parish Center.
Anyone interested in volunteering to work even a short shift to organize and put on the dinner can sign up to help in any of the following time periods:
Wednesday, Nov. 22
• 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., with kitchen preparation, food preparation of fresh vegetables and dining room set-up.
• 5 to 7 p.m., cutting pies and slicing turkeys.
Thursday, Nov. 23
• 8 to 9 a.m., assembly and delivery of to-go meals
• 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., last-minute preparations, serving and cleanup.
“I really can’t express how grateful I am for people coming together for this community,” organizer Debi Rhines said. “It’s really fantastic.”
To sign up to volunteer, call Rhines at 265-2737. If leaving a message, people should give their name, contact information, and the time they would like to volunteer.
To help with deliveries, people can call Gus Sharpe at 265-1610 to get on the list.
