The hall will be once again decorated by our local Girl Scouts with music by local musicians. Join us for a day of true community as we eat, share stories and experiences and enjoy the holiday spirit. For nearly 30 years, the veterans have hosted a Thanksgiving meal at the Veterans Memorial Building in Downtown Santa Cruz for those in our community who are houseless or of very modest means. As with many things in our lives, public health considerations arising from the Covid-19 pandemic caused the veterans to suspend the meal until it could be hosted safely. And now that time has finally come!
