Lake City Center Needs More Turkeys

Organizers of a free Thanksgiving Day meal at the Lake City Center in Coeur d’Alene are in need of a few more turkeys, about 40 pies and additional cash donations to pull off Thursday’s dinner. This is the 17th year of the feast – a traditional sit-down meal with live music, candles and a wait staff. It’s from noon to 2 p.m. at the center, 1916 Lakewood Dr. A special effort is made to reach the homeless, the disabled, seniors and the home bound. Anyone who needs a ride to the meal can arrange one, or meals can be delivered to those unable to attend. Last year 50 turkeys and 80 pies were donated for the meal, and organizers expect that more are needed this year. Call (509) 226-3208 or email freethanksgivingdaymeal@aol.com.
