People from across York County can kick up their heels and benefit the Thanksgiving Basket Program as York County Shelter Programs is hosts its 13th Annual Harvest Dance on Friday, Nov. 4. The event is 7-11 p.m. at Sanford Elks Lodge, 13 Elm St.
The basket program, administered by York County Shelter Programs’ Food Pantry, provides community members with a basket that includes a turkey and all of the traditional Thanksgiving fixings, just prior to Thanksgiving. Last year YCSP gave out more than 900 baskets.
The dance, with music provided by DJ Gratitude, raises funds and collects non-perishable food items. Tickets are $10 and can be bought at the door or purchased by calling YCSP staff members Scott Davis at (207) 502-0520; Stacy Irving at (207) 651-5538, or Bonnie Leslie at (207) 324-1137, ext. 109.
Bring a non-perishable item to be eligible for drawings. There will also be door prizes and 50/50 drawings.
Those who can’t attend the dance but want to help by donating non-perishable food items or grocery gift cards to the basket program, should contact Food Pantry Coordinator Mike Ouellette at (207) 391-3125 or mikeo@ycspi.org.
