Nearly 300 served at community Thanksgiving

Approximately 280 people enjoyed a traditional Thanksgiving dinner last week at the Herb Asp Community Center in Greybull.

“Numbers were pretty similar to what we’ve seen in the past,” said Pastor James Scott of the Shell Cowboy Church, which sponsors the event with the assistance and support of other area churches, businesses and volunteers.

“We thank the Lord for the ability to serve our community and to bring the community together,” said Scott. “It wasn’t just people from Basin and Greybull. We get some from Otto and Shell and other small communities. People really seem to enjoy it.”

Scott offered special thanks to his wife Rebecca Scott, Lori Thon and Beverly Henke for their organizational efforts and to Mr. Ralph Wensky’s SkillsUSA students at Greybull High School for their assistance in serving the meal.
