Dunwoody Gives New Meaning to Turkey Trot

Partnering with others in the Dunwoody community, the Rotary Club of Dunwoody once again supported the creation of Harvest Baskets for 85 needy families at a local elementary school. Our participation includes some funding AND being on-hand to load baskets for recipients on distribution day. But perhaps the highlight is the "turkey trot" - not a 5K race but rather a run through the local Publix to buy holiday turkeys - because there's a two-turkey limit for any one buyer. So Dunwoody gathered its crew and ran back and forth with turkeys a week or so before Thanksgiving, and a day or two before basket distribution.

The baskets are designed to feed a family for at least a week - with breakfast and lunch items in addition to all the fixings for a Thanksgiving dinner. 

Thanks especially to Anita and Charlie Augello and their family for leading our efforts for several years!
