Thanksgiving Means Food, Kindness And Some Time Off
Everyone, including the school kids, seems to be getting into the holiday spirit.
Thanks to the Mary Lynch Elementary School kindergarten students for explaining the meaning of Thanksgiving.
Alex said, "It means more presents," while Ryder decided, "It means we eat a big turkey."
But Gunner and CJ are wise beyond their years. Gunner said, "It means kindness and respect," and CJ said he was "thankful for my friends and family."
The annual Thanksgiving dinner at the First English Lutheran Church will include turkey, dressing, potatoes and all the trimming. This meal is provided for the community from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day.
The church is located at 501 S. Webster. Kimball County Transit Service will provide rides or deliver meals.
Many people will be able to take advantage of the holiday.
There's no school Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. The city, county and Observer offices also are among the workplaces that will be closed Thursday and Friday.
