GALVESTON (Nov. 2018) – The stage is set for the third annual Thanksgiving Day feast at The Salvation Army’s Center of Hope on Galveston Island on Thanksgiving Day, November 22 from 12-3. The Lighthouse Charity Team is cooking turkey and ham, the centerpiece of a traditional, sit-down meal open to the entire community. Other activities scheduled are live music, miniature horses, a jump house, movies and crafts for kids and gifts for kids under 12. The event is completely free and all are welcome.
“We wanted to provide this day as a gift to our community,” says Captain Kenny Jones. “It’s not just for the down-and-out but for anyone who wants a family experience for Thanksgiving. We’ll have good music, good food and fun activities for kids. Our only goal is to thank God for his goodness toward us and share his love. We expect to serve close to 1000 people this year.”
The Center of Hope is located at 601 51st Street in Galveston. Limited volunteer opportunities are available but must be registered in advance. To volunteer, visit www.salvationarmygalvestoncounty.org/our-needs and click the link to the online sign-up sheet.  
This event is sponsored by the Lighthouse Charity Team, Galveston Regional Chamber of Commerce, Walmart Seawall,  Shipley Donuts of Galveston, United Rentals of Galveston.
