On Thanksgiving Day November 24, Team Rubicon and the Black Swamp Area Council, Boy Scouts of America are opening our hearts to put on a Thanksgiving meal at Camp Berry in Donnell Lodge Dining Hall.
Black Swamp Area Council has had a partnership with Team Rubicon for more than four years, hosting chainsaw training courses and weekends with the group's volunteers sharpening their skills before going out to disaster sites. Team Rubicon is a veteran-led humanitarian organization that serves global communities before, during, and after disasters and crises. They were founded following the Haiti earthquake in 2010, the organization has grown to more than 150,000 volunteers across the United States and has launched more than 1,100 operations domestically and internationally. Team Rubicon focuses on three areas of impact: disaster services, rebuild services and international services. More information can be found at www.teamrubiconusa.org.
This opportunity is such a great way to make sure those that don’t have a place to go or those who are on duty during this day Thanksgiving have a meal and they know others are there for them and we care about them. The Tribesgiving is for all Veterans, First Responders, and Law Enforcement, it is set for November 24th, 2022, at Camp Berry in Donnell Lodge Dining Hall. Social hour is at 12pm and Meal begins at 1pm. If you need a ride, please contact Ron Drebert at ron.drebert@tramrubiconusa.org and he can help make arrangements.
“There is a seat for everyone at the table. This is a time to reflect on 2022. A time to share our stories, our time with other grey shirts and veterans, to serve on another” – Lin Drebert
