MEREDITH — The Meredith Rotary Club hosted its 29th annual Senior Christmas Dinner on Sunday, Dec. 6, at Hart’s Turkey Farm in Meredith. Due to COVID-19 pandemic, this year’s event was held via drive-thru/curbside pickup. Senior citizens over 55 years of age from Meredith, Moultonborough, Center Harbor and Sandwich were greeted by Santa and Mrs. Claus as they picked up their holiday meal.
“The Senior Christmas Dinner is always a fun day that is free of charge for all participants,” according to Betsey Donovan, co-chairman of the event. “This year’s event was different, but we were so happy to have been able to continue this tradition despite current circumstances.”
Each of the 293 attendees received a holiday gift bag, and goodies were also awarded at random to lucky participants as they drove through to pick up their holiday meals.
As part of this year’s event, 15 meals were delivered to Belknap House and eight meals were delivered to Isaiah 61 Café, both of which are in Laconia.
