Help on Thanksgiving Day....

November 17, 2008:

I wanted to this everyone and see who can pitch in here or with your local food bank.

This Thanksgiving, we need your help and support in serving those in need. Langosta Lounge, the newest restaurant on the Asbury Park Boardwalk, will open its doors on November 27 to provide a free Thanksgiving meal to local community members.

While theyhave an abundance of generous volunteers to help us out on Thanksgiving Day, they are still accepting donations of turkeys, hams, canned goods, boxed foods and desserts, as well as hats gloves, scarves and toiletries.

We know times are tough for everyone, but the smallest of contributions will be gratefully accepted. Last year, they served nearly 400 people on Thanksgiving Day, and this year, theyare expecting the turnout to be even greater.

To find out more about donating food and clothes to their Thanksgiving soup kitchen, please call Langosta Lounge at 732-455-3275, or Labrador Lounge at 732-830-5770. Food-drops can be scheduled at either location (Normandy Beach or Asbury Park).

Interested in volunteering? While the Thanksgiving soup kitchen is currently staffed, please let them know if you would like to help out during their Christmas Day soup kitchen - also at Langosta Lounge.

Also, see your local Food Bank.
