37th Annual Christmas Dinner held in Lewis County

WESTON, W.Va. (WBOY) — Lewis County held its 37th Annual Free Christmas Day Dinner at Robert L. Bland Middle School.

The annual dinner is a volunteer and donation driven event that serves the public during Christmas Day with a free meal.

The meal is a complete traditional dinner with turkey, ham, stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, green beans and a holiday dessert.

With most food places are closed on Christmas Day, this event gives people a place to get a great meal during the holiday.

“We get a lot of folks from all stations in life, those that don’t have 2 nickels to rub together and those that have stuffy bank account and those are the one’s that help us keep it going, and the ones that can’t donate they know [the Christmas Dinner] is here for them.” said Steve Weaver, Lewis County Christmas Dinner Inc. member.

This years Christmas dinner served more than 600 people in need in Lewis County and offered dine-in, carry-out and delivery.
