La Crosse community Thanksgiving dinner back
A surge of public support brings dinner for 34th year
The dinner is back.
La Crosse’s community Thanksgiving dinner will go on as scheduled, thanks to a surge of volunteers offering to work with the planning committee.
Last Friday, the dinner committee announced it was calling off this year’s event after 33 consecutive years, due to a shortage of people assigned to different tasks.
Committee secretary Tom Rand says that by November 1, they’ll be ready to start signing up workers for the Thanksgiving dinner at the La Crosse Center.
