Thankful and Merry: New Activities in November and December
November 11th, 10:30 am
Veteran’s Day Program
Join the COA for a special presentation for Veteran’s Day, led by Lonnie Cook of Heartland Hospice. Enjoy a continental breakfast during the program. The formal event will open with an Invocation, followed by the Pledge of Allegiance. We’ll take a moment to reflect on the significance of the day with a reading of the History of Veteran’s Day. Our veterans will be honored with a Recognition of Veterans, and more. The program will conclude with a Benediction. SG1 Jeremie Mead from Camp Grayling will also be joining us to share his perspective on service. We hope to see you on Monday, November 11th.
November 14th, 4:00 pm—6:00 pm
Thanksgiving Special Dinner
As the season of gratitude approaches, join the Crawford County Commission on Aging for their annual Thanksgiving Dinner on November 14th at 4:00 p.m. This event is a wonderful opportunity to come together, and enjoy turkey, mashed potatoes & gravy, stuffing, green bean casserole, rolls, and pumpkin pie. Sponsored by Thompson and Treusch Law Office, this month’s Special Dinner not only serves up delicious food but also offers a heartwarming door prize: a basket full of pet supplies! Attendees will have the chance to enter a free drawing and win essentials for their beloved furry friends.
Gather with us for an evening filled with community, comfort, and celebration. Let’s give thanks, share stories, and maybe even go home with a special treat for the pets who bring us joy year-round.

Help the COA set a year-end record, and become one of 15 people who donate blood for this drive. Blood is in critical need, and the more you donate, the more lives you save. Giving blood gives an individual even more to be thankful for.
