LWC Turkey Palooza Feeds 56 in Adair County By Kia Milam Lindsey Wilson College students dedicated their Saturday afternoon to providing Thanksgiving meals to the food insecure of Columbia-Adair County before heading home for the holiday. LWC students were joined by college staff for the third-annual Turkey Palooza, an event organized each year by LWC Campus Kitchen. Two dozen volunteers from the LWC campus community served 56 individuals on Saturday. In her first year as Bonner Scholar Coordinator and Director of LWC Campus Kitchen Lainie Phelps said Turkey Palooza is a way for the college to give back to the community they call home. "Turkey Palooza provides a traditional holiday dinner to people who might not otherwise get a meal on Thanksgiving," said Phelps. "Every family got enough food for a full Thanksgiving meal plus an extra bag of food. I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome." The bags of food delivered on Saturday included Thanksgiving staples like ham, rolls, a 5 pound bag of potatoes, stuffing, corn, green beans and peas. Students also lead a bake shift and baked enough cookies for each client to receive at least one for each person in the family. LWC business administration senior and Campus Kitchen Administration Manager Jamie Bratcher from Louisville, Ky., said Turkey Palooza would not be possible without the generous support from the community and business partners. "We were blown away by the support and number of people that contacted us to donate," said Bratcher. "We went to IGA of Columbia and purchased the bags filled with the Thanksgiving items. None of this could have happened without donations from Lindsey Wilson, the community and from our grocery partner, IGA." LWC Campus Kitchen is a student-run organization that relies on food donations from businesses and the community to serve more than 60 people in Columbia-Adair County each week. In 2017, more than 30 students volunteered with LWC Campus Kitchen to recover a total of 4,041 pounds of food.
