The Salvation Army held a community Thanksgiving dinner in collaboration with the Haines Ministerial Association. The dinner was held on Thanksgiving day, and served 175 meals in the school cafeteria, in addition to 140 take-out meals. Salvation Army pastor, Captain Kevin Woods, said it was a great turn out. Members of the Ministerial Association, a partnership of local churches, provided the food for the main course, and the dessert was donated by members of the community. Woods said there were so many desserts generously donated, they didn’t even have to cut into the pumpkin pies he had brought.
The annual Turkey Shoot, hosted by the Haines Hot Shots on behalf of the Haines Sportsmen’s Association, awarded nine turkeys to nine contest prize winners during the event. Out of 14 contestants, James Stickler, Loyal Tormey and Dawson Holm achieved the highest scores. ^They were the hottest hot shots that day
