Letter to the Editor: 2018 Yuletide Dinner

Dear Editor,

The annual Yuletide Dinner has been a Christmas Day tradition in Colusa County for 34 years.  On December 25, 2018, over 150 people were served Christmas dinner with all the trimmings, thanks to the generosity of this wonderful community.  

The Yuletide Dinner Committee would like to thank all those who donated their time, money, turkeys, and pies to make this year’s Dinner a festive success.  Just over 100 “meals on wheels” were delivered countywide from 11 to 1 p.m., and some 50 meals were served in Friendship Hall from 1 to 3 p.m.  Another 30 plus meals were delivered late in the day to Valley West.

We would particularly like to acknowledge the ongoing generous financial support from Colusa Rotary.   We are very grateful to the steady stream of individuals and families who helped set up, cook, carve, serve, and clean up.

Thanks to all who helped, and best wishes for a blessed 2019.

Gratefully,

Yuletide Dinner Committee: 

Janet Anderson
