Santa to deliver 100 turkeys for Bounty of Bethlehem

By Bill Moss, Published: December 14, 2017

Santa and his elves on Tuesday morning will deliver 100 turkeys to Immaculata Catholic School for the 35th annual Bounty of Bethlehem Community Christmas Dinner. The delivery will be followed by a Christmas party in the gym with Santa for the school kids after dismissal for holiday break. A Sysco trailer will be on site to store the turkeys until it is time to prepare them for the Community Christmas Dinner on Christmas Day.
Volunteers are still needed. Call 828 702-1467 to find out what still needs to be done and when. Openings most days from Dec. 21 through Dec. 26 are available.
The Community Christmas Dinner has been hosted at Immaculata Catholic School with 100% of funds coming from our community through our fundraising and outreach efforts. Supporters are individuals and business alike. Donations can be made online at www.TheBountyofBethlehem.org or by mail to PO Box 883 Hendersonville, NC 28793 .
Since the early 1980s, Henderson County volunteers and supporters have gathered to create a tradition of providing a free Community Christmas Dinner by Bounty of Bethlehem for anyone and everyone to enjoy, no matter who they are, how they worship, or from where they come. All are welcome to join us as an individual or a family, make new friends or meet some old friends in the middle. Meal hours are 12:30p – 5p. Over 2000 Henderson County folks are served annually. No one should be alone on Christmas Day.
