COMMUNITY
Veterans Bring Thanksgiving to Post 310 By Darrel Wheeler Contributing Writer The good veterans at the Americans Legion’s Lakiba Palmer Post 310 were serving their community again with their annual Thanksgiving Dinner. Last Saturday, community folks were able to walk onto the American Legion patio and grab a full meal complete with fried turkey, dressing, ham, yams, and a bunch of other good eats. They could dine-in or take their grub to go. The American Legion cooking crew deep-fried turkeys and slow-cooked hams in order to feed anybody that wanted to enjoy a Thanksgiving feast.
“Our members did all the cooking. We fried multiple turkeys. It was work, but a labor of love. We have some real good cooks here,” Legion Ser vice Officer Sullivan Turner, aka “Sully”, shared. “We do this every year. It’s one of our ways to connect with our neighbors over here, but anybody is welcome to come by and get a free plate. If they want to talk or hang out and kick it with us, that’s fine too.” Hospitality, good people, and plenty of good food was the vibe on the third Saturday of November at 465 47th St.
