Thanksgiving at John Muir School

CommunityGrows joined Community Partners United, the Western Addition Beacon Center, the Buchanan YMCA, and Mo’Magic to celebrate the 9th Annual Giving Voice to the Season Thanksgiving Dinner at John Muir Elementary School on Saturday, November 17th, 2012 from 12:00 noon to 3:00 PM. Many families and residents of the community participated. There were great musical activities, fantastic food, an a raffle for turkeys. This Fostering Season event was a means to connect residents with service providers. Youth and adults performed songs and dances, Handful Players also put on a student medley, and our very own Nora Brereton played her harp—accompanying her friend Patrice who sang. Our BEETS helped sign families in and work the food line. A great dinner was had by all!
