We do on average 3-4 events each month, however, one of my favorite events is our annual Pot-Luck Thanksgiving Dinner. We provide the turkeys, a ham, rolls and tea and the residents bring side dishes or desserts. It's a very relaxed evening where the staff and residents can just sit, relax, eat dinner and gear up for the holidays. We normally end the evening by everyone who attended helping to decorate the XMas Tree in the clubhouse and listening to XMas music.

All residents are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items to be donated to the nearest shelter. All who participate are entered in a drawing to win a gift card to a local grocery store to purchase their own thanksgiving dinner items. Pies, hot apple cider, and hot chocolate will be provided.

We are having a Fall Potluck (named for religious purposes to not offend any one resident on our community). On November 18th we are having a Potluck. & We are providing all the big stuff: Turkey, Ham, Utensils, Music, Fun, Drinks and More Fun. & having a Potluck since it was a few of our residents ideas. & the one who brings the most interesting dish/appetizer/dessert will be judged for a prize or FREE rent... Potluck is divided by the initial of the last name. & a winner will be provided by each category. Most importantly, its a time for rest and mingling. to meet your neighbors. We will also have a coloring contest of a turkey for the kiddos. So a little kiddie event too. with a little story of Thanksgiving - The Real Pilgrim style from back in the day. Where it...

We are setting up a wrapping station for the month of December. Residents can come in to wrap their gifts and all supplies will be supplied. We have wrapping paper, tags, tape, ribbons and boxes.

We are trying to implement this for this year. As a LIHTC community many of our residents are lower income families. I have solicited participation from local businesses and non-profits to offer Thanksgiving Day meal baskets for each of out families. It will include a turkey, and supplies to make stuffing, mashed potatoes, vegetable, rolls and a pie. It is our way to give thanks to our residents and hopefully earn their thanks as well.
