Women’s fitness center hosts turkey drive
Thanksgiving is just around the corner. Traditionally, this is a time to collectively give thanks. And most celebrate this holiday by gathering for a meal with family and friends. The traditional meals vary from turkey and wild rice dressing in northern U.S. and Canada to turkey and cornbread dressing in the south. Very different traditions, with one commonality — turkey.
But not everyone will have a turkey. And the Curves of Kailua-Kona wants to help by hosting a Give a Gobble event Nov. 16 and 17. During this event, the Kailua-Kona Curves will waive the initial service fee for any new member who brings in either a turkey or a $30 contribution, all to be donated to the Food Basket.
“We chose this organization because they provide hundreds of pounds of food to charities which provide meals to others on Thanksgiving. Our goal is to donate 10 turkeys and I think we can do it,” said Curves owner Cindy Boyd.
The Give a Gobble event will be a time for long-term members and new members alike to have fun, get to know each other and help the community simultaneously. The festivities will include a turkey recipe exchange.
