27 After careful consideration, we have decided that it is in the best interest of the public to cancel the Two Rivers Community Thanksgiving Dinner due to the continuing pandemic. Safely serving over 200 people makes social distancing difficult for the many volunteers, staff and dinner guests. We hope to see you next year!
