“True Meaning of Christmas” – the ninth annual free Christmas dinner
When: Noon to 3 p.m. December 25
Where: William Ford Senior Activity Center, 6750 Troy Street, just west of Telegraph Road and north of Ecorse Road.
What: A group of volunteers serve free Christmas dinner to anyone, whether alone, less fortunate or hungry – and their guests. This year, the meal will include turkey, ham, white and sweet potatoes, gravy, corn, salad, beverages, desserts and all the trimmings. The dinner is organized by the Domski family, which years ago chose to end its annual gift exchange and put the money toward a meal for anyone to enjoy. In addition, the Taylor Police Department has donated dozens of turkeys and hams. Last year’s Christmas meal drew an estimated 200 diners and plenty of volunteers.
Those who cannot arrange transportation to the Ford Center can call for a free ride in advance or on the day of the event. The telephone number is (313) 291-7740.
