Friday, November 20: Turkey Cook Off
Thanksgiving came a week early for me this year, when I visited the Friday Night Fun program’s annual Turkey Cook-Off event, held this year at Eureka Valley Rec Center.
For more than 20 years, the department’s Friday Night Fun program has been providing city teens with safe and fun activities every Friday evening, getting them off the streets and into activities like sports, games, ski trips, group discussions, dances and other social events.
Every Thanksgiving, Friday Night Fun sites from all over the city meet for the annual turkey cook-off competition. Each site brings a home-made turkey or side dish and enters it for judging.
Lucky for me, I got to be a judge and taste all of the delicious treats from our rec centers and playgrounds. It was a great event with a lot of character and I’m glad I was asked to be a part of it.
We really do have some great programs out there.
Also, Jackie Battle, current Assistant Recreation Supervisor and longtime teen programs coordinator, did a fabulous job getting everyone together for this super event.
I’m making my reservations already for next year’s event.
