After months of preparation, Team Feed Flagler’s free Community Thanksgiving Celebration will take place from 3 to 6 p.m. tomorrow, Wednesday, Nov. 23, at 11 locations throughout the county.
For the second year straight, Sandra Mullen’s Chicks with Cans team collected the most food. Although there seems to be a slight dispute over the amount they collected — Mullen and her team estimate 50,000 to 60,000, while county officials estimate closer to 20,000 — one thing is clear: they dominated their competition category.
The runner-up, the Sheriff’s office, collected 10,000 pounds. Last year, Chicks with Cans won with raising only (ha, “only”) 4,000 pounds.
