Not Enough Turkeys or Pies or Monetary Donations Yet!

Marilyn Putney, putneym@gmail.com

Here is what we still need:
  • 17 cooked and carved turkeys (at least 14 lbs. each) to cover 1400 lunches. You can deliver them, cold or warm to the Teacher’s Lounge by 9:30am on 11/19. We will reheat in warming ovens. Don’t forget to carve them! No time to cook? Consider purchasing a cooked turkey at Draegers, Piazzas, JJF or Safeway and then carve it yourself. Please remember, this is a charity event so all proceeds go toward a local charity.
  • We still need 55 pies donated so everyone gets a piece. There are more pie sign up slots added to the Jooners computer link. Just keep scrolling down.
  • Volunteer your time for November 19th: We still need a person to pick up the 1400 servings of stuffing and gravy from Marie Calendars at 11:00am, Nov. 19th. Contact Maryanne Welton, Mare@robquigley.com.
  • Monetary donations are gladly accepted to help pay for the stuffing, gravy, rolls, cranberry sauce, and salad. Make checks payable to Gunn High School, (write Turkey Feast on memo line). Send to Marilyn Putney, 263 Whitclem Dr. Palo Alto, 94306.

For families that are new to this event, here is how it all works. 
On the day of the Turkey Feast, each Gunn staff member or student can purchase lunch and a drink by paying $5.00. Or they can bring in 3 cans of food for a local food bank plus $1.00. Advance tickets are currently for sale in the SAC. Lunch for meat eaters will include turkey, dressing and gravy, salad, cranberry sauce, rolls and pie. Vegetarians will feast on a baked potato bar as well as salad, rolls and pie. We hope you and your family can all be a part of this special day!

Please contact Maryanne Welton if you have any questions: mare@robquigley.com
