 Thanksgiving Baskets

Community Service Chairperson Scott Sadler announced the annual Giving Baskets project, where the membership contributes food, which goes to make up baskets that are then given to needy Eastside families at Thanksgiving. Through Hopelink and Lake Heights Family YMCA, the baskets are prepared from contributions and then distributed the week of Thanksgiving. Collections will be taken this coming Friday, November 3, and the following Friday, November 10.

Suggested items for giving, broken down by alphabetical groups [last name]:

A - D 10 lbs. of potatoes, 2 lbs. of carrots E - H Pie crust mix and filling for at least two pies I - M 5 lb. box of Bisquick, 1 lb. of butter, large jar of jam N - R 10 cans of veggies or fruit S - Z 5 lbs. of apples, 5 lbs. of oranges

The BBRC will contribute funds to purchase turkeys to go in the baskets. For more details, contact either Will Einstein, (425) 462-3170, or Craig Groshart, (425) 453-4233.
