Around the Upper Valley, families and other groups will be preparing big meals on Thursday. Almost as much of a tradition as cooking the meal itself is the last minute rush for a forgotten ingredient. For those who find themselves without a critical component on Thursday, however, shopping options will be limited, as Cubby’s will be closed on Thursday. Nagley’s General Store will be open on Thanksgiving Day, but will close early.
For those who don’t want to cook but still want the traditional Thanksgiving meal, there are a couple of options. The newly re-opened Sheep Creek Lodge will be serving a buffet style meal with all the traditional fixings starting at 10:00 am. The Talkeetna Roadhouse also has a special Thanksgiving offering at 2:00 pm. Reservations are required for the Roadhouse dinner.
Anyone who knows of pot-luck style gatherings for Thanksgiving is welcome to share them on the KTNA Facebook page.
