Season’s Greetings Island Neighbours!

You’re all invited to Christmas Dinner, Take Out Style! With turkey, gravy and all the fixings, individually portioned, hot, and ready to be picked up at your preferred time (5,6 or 7) on Christmas day. A simple dessert will be included, and we’ll have a vegetarian option as well.

There will be a pickup area setup outside the Floathouse Restaurant at the Gorge Marina where you will be able to come and collect your meal(s). (We’re also trying to coordinate a way to get meals to housebound community members.)

As much as we love to spend time decorating the Hall and preparing food with the community for this special event, this year will have to be different. Thank you to all who usually help and those of you who’ve already reached out to help this year. A single household cook team will be preparing the feast for you all this year.

This meal is offered free of charge and no one will be refused food on Christmas Day. To help us plan better, we kindly ask that you return your invitation with your preferences, name, and contact information. If you did not receive an invitation, please email: team.awesome.cortesgmail.com or call 935-6745.

How can you help? If you have extra vegetables from your garden that you think we could use, please let us know. Maybe you can deliver a meal to your neighbour or someone near to you on Christmas, to help cut down on cars at the Gorge during the pickup times.

If you would like to make a financial donation to the Whaletown Community Club who funds this dinner, please e-transfer: treasurer.whaletowngmail.com (note: Xmas dinner) or mail to: PO box 54 Whaletown BC V0P1Z0

We really hope everyone has a marvelous Winter.

Noah and Izabelle
