Happy holidays from the Tarkio Nutrition Center! As the holiday season approaches, we’ve been busy preparing a wonderful lineup of events to celebrate with our community. We invite you to join us for a festive Thanksgiving lunch on November 19, where we’ll be serving all your favorite holiday dishes. Indulge in a delicious feast featuring roast turkey, mashed potatoes with gravy, classic green bean casserole, deviled eggs, stuffing, and, of course, pumpkin pie – perfect for sharing with family and friends! A donation of $5 is suggested for those over 60, and $7 for those under 60.

In the spirit of giving, we are excited to announce the launch of our Adopt-a-Senior project. This initiative is designed to support homebound seniors in our community by providing them with warm meals and small gifts during this joyous season. With a donation of just $50, you can help ensure a senior receives meals for an entire month. Your generous contributions will make a significant difference in the lives of those who may otherwise spend the holidays alone.

Additionally, from December 5 to 20, we will be celebrating the “12 Days of Christmas” event as a token of our appreciation for all our supporters. Each day, we’ll randomly select one dine-in client to receive a small gift, so be sure to join us for lunch and enter for a chance to win some holiday cheer!

Our center remains a welcoming place for all, serving lunch from 11:15 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. For those over 60, we suggest a contribution of $5, while individuals under 60 can enjoy a meal for $7. Don’t forget to stay connected with us through our Facebook page – Tarkio Nutrition Center – to keep up-to-date on all our holiday happenings. We look forward to celebrating the season with you!
