Food donations are being accpeted at Wilson's Business Solutions or Thompson Public Library.
A local Christmas tradition will continue this year.
The Thompson Community Christmas Dinner provides a meal and company for everyone and anyone in Thompson on Christmas Day.
Organizer Emily Pruder says her main goal is to make everyone in Thompson feel like they’re part of a family.
She and her family will be organizing the event for a 3rd time this year:
"It’s been put on by multiple groups throughout the year, it’s been going on for over 20 years, so when another group needed to step down from it, and somebody else to carry on, I stepped up and my family has really helped to organize this initiative".
Pruder says they’re looking for donations of fresh fruit and vegetables, hams, potatoes, and other food items. They can be dropped off at Wilson’s Business Solutions or the Thompson Public Library.
The dinner will be at St. Joseph’s Hall from 12-3pm on Christmas Day.
