I would like to thank everyone who generously donated food items to the Keller Williams food drive to support the 2012 Gig Harbor Basket Brigade. For nearly two decades the Gig Harbor Basket Brigade has delivered meal baskets containing ingredients to prepare a full Thanksgiving dinner, to families in need in the Gig Harbor and Key Peninsula areas. In 2011 the Gig Harbor Basket Brigade delivered 516 baskets which fed more than 2000 community residents, and this year will most likely surpass that.
Your donations were picked up on Monday and delivered to the Tacoma Narrows Airport where this year’s baskets will be assembled. The valiant Basket Brigade crew, made up of community volunteers like you, will be setting up for assembly this evening from 5:00 – 7:00. The big fun starts tomorrow, Wednesday 11/21, at 11:00am, when the baskets will be assembled and, this is the rewarding part, DELIVERED! This is a bee-hive of activity that is thrilling to partake and fascinating to witness. If you would like to lend a helping hand visit the Gig Harbor Basket Brigade website for additional information, or drop by the Tacoma Narrows Airport and follow to the crowd of happy volunteers.
