In a tradition that spans almost four decades, the Annual Santa’s Christmas Dinner is back this Christmas Day at Yavis Family Restaurant.
Its roots lie in a few people wanting to get together on Christmas Day when there were no restaurants open. From a gathering of about a dozen, last year the annual free Christmas dinner served more than 400.
Attendance for the event spans all groups. Some seniors may not have family coming home, to others alone on the holiday. Today entire families make it a tradition to come out for the afternoon of visiting, good food and fun.
The community is invited to the annual dinner from noon until 3 p.m. Volunteers will provide a pick-up service for those who do not have transportation. Volunteers will also deliver dinner for those not able to make it out.
To arrange transportation or delivery contact Century 21 at 403-823-2121, or stop by the office at 145 3rd Avenue West.
