Please join us for a special Thanksgiving Lunch hosted by the Veterans Lunch Program of Holyoke and dedicated to all Veterans and their families. Enjoy a hearty Thanksgiving meal, warm company, and a chance to connect with fellow veterans and their families. A full meal will be served on Thursday, November 27, 2025, 12:00pm-1:30pm in the auditorium of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, 485 Appleton Street, Holyoke. This event is free of charge as a small token of our gratitude for faithful service. Please RSVP by November 14, 2025, to ensure we have enough seats for everyone. You may leave a message for Gina Nelson (413) 537-3119 or email ginanelson5@gmail.com or scan the QR code in the flyer to confirm your attendance. We look forward to celebrating together and giving thanks for the incredible contributions that Veterans have made to our country. This year, the turkeys will be ready for the smoker thanks to Dennis and Dave; two of our Vets who are master grillers. We’ll complete the menu cooked in house and enjoy a variety of pies provided by Cracker Barrell in Holyoke. Football on our 90″ TV, full bellies, and great company – what could be better?
