Special to the Express
Wednesday, April 24, the Great Room of the Halifax Town Hall was turned into a cafe serving a full course turkey dinner in appreciation to the many volunteers who give their time to the Council on Aging.
Turkey and the fixings were prepared by Chef Andrew Tate of Trio Community Kitchen in West Bridgewater. The COA staff helped serve the volunteers. Tasty cookies were baked by Caeli McCullough of Golden Hour Confectionery. Caeli is a graduate of the Silver Lake Culinary Arts program and now runs a successful local business. Mike Darsch of Snowy Owl Coffee served hot and cold-brewed coffee.
Volunteers enjoyed listening to performer Bill Reidy who sang and played guitar.
The COA volunteers were recognized with a Certificate of Appreciation from State Representative Kathy LaNatra. Each volunteer left with the certificate and a whoopie pie made by the students in the Silver Lake Culinary Arts program.
