Members of the Morgantown community craving turkey with all the fixin’s can enjoy a Thanksgiving dinner with other community members at the Salvation Army or the Bartlett House on Thursday.
The Salvation Army only began serving dinner on Thanksgiving last year. The center saw a little over 100 people turn out last season, said Chief Goldie Long.
This year’s turnout is expected to be similar.
“It could be 10, it could be 200,” said social worker Martha Creel.
“Basically, we see the same clientele, with a few new faces,” Long said.
The Salvation Army also does a regular feeding program, five days a week.
“We see lots of families, and not just for Thanksgiving,” Long said.
Families with young children, college-age community members and senior citizens are all among those who take advantage of the Salvation Army’s food services.
“It’s open to anyone,” Creel said.
That includes those who don’t have anywhere to go, or simply want to avoid making a mess in their kitchen, she added.
Dinner will be served from 4-5:30 p.m. It will be coordinated by the center’s full- and part-time cooks with the assistance of volunteers.
As the weather turns colder, the Salvation Army and other similar centers see an increase in the turnout of people utilizing their services, Long said.
“It’s a very busy time of year,” she said.
After Thanksgiving, the Salvation Army will continue preparations for Christmas within the community, such as the bears and stockings they put together.
The Bartlett House Inc., also on University Avenue, will be hosting a Thanksgiving lunch as well, Long said.
Representatives at the Bartlett House could not be reached for further information. They can be contacted at 292-0101.
