Big Crowds Turn Out for Thanksgiving Meals and Friendship

Yesterday was a day to give thanks. Hundreds of Central Oregonians showed up at the Bend Community Center for the annual Thanksgiving Day meal. They had different reasons for being there, but all agreed on one thing. The food and the company were just what they needed on a cold, lonely holiday.  BCC Executive Director Taffy Gleason says people from all walks of like come to the center:  “We have a wide variety of people who come in here. Some people are on fixed incomes and they live alone. They are just plain lonely and they have not place to go on thanksgiving or Christmas and they come here to socialize.”
