For nearly 50 years, Saugatuck Congregational Church has hosted — and done all the work for — the Community Thanksgiving Day Feast.
But just as traditions change — someone new in the family takes over the meal, somebody brings a great new dish — the longstanding Westport event has a different look this year.
Saugatuck Church is passing its turkey baster to the Inn at Longshore’s OnTheMarc catering. They’ll do the cooking — and the meal will be served at Christ & Holy Trinity Episcopal Church.
Many hands help with the Community Thanksgiving Feast.
Dan Levinson and Monique Bosch have stepped up to coordinate the feast.
But many things have not changed.
For one, everyone is invited.
For another, it’s still free. Partners — including Main Street Resources, Saugatuck Congregational, Christ & Holy Trinity, the Unitarian Church in Westport and Temple Israel — are making the day possible.
And — perhaps most importantly — tons of volunteers are needed. All ages are welcome. To help in any way, click here.
